{},{1},{2},{3},{4},{1,2},{1,3},{2,3},{1,4},{2,4},{3,4},{1,2,3},{1,2,4},{1,3,4},{2,3,4},{1,2,3,4}
Subsets: total
Proper Subsets total:
subset with no elements
subset with elements
subset with elements
subset with elements
subset with elements

you need subset with elements: {1,2},{1,3},{2,3},{1,4},{2,4},{3,4}

You need to choose 2 of the 4 elements; the number of ways you can do that is "4 choose 2" = C(4,2) = 6.

You can make the list; it should have 6 different subsets.

To make sure you don't count any subset twice, make sure each subset you write has the smaller of the two elements first -- that is, for example, you don't want to have two different subsets {2,4} and {4,2}, because those are the same.

Or of course you could make sure that in each subset you list the larger of the two numbers is first....
