Proper subsets with 3 items in it:

{7,19,5}, {7,19,6}, {19,5,6}, {5,6,7}

--------------------------------------------------------

Proper subsets with 2 items in it

{7,19}, {7,5}, {7,6}, {19,5}, {19,6}, {5,6}

--------------------------------------------------------

Proper subsets with 1 item in it

{7}, {19}, {5}, {6}

--------------------------------------------------------

Proper subsets with 0 items in it

{ } ... aka the empty set

with any set, there is only one subset that has nothing in it which is the empty set. The empty set is a subset of any set.

-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------

Put all of these proper subsets together to get

{7,19,5}, {7,19,6}, {19,5,6}, {5,6,7}
{7,19}, {7,5}, {7,6}, {19,5}, {19,6}, {5,6}
{7}, {19}, {5}, {6}
{ }

Note: you can denote the empty set as the symbol

There are 15 proper subsets listed above.
