You can put this solution on YOUR website!
{3} is a subset of {1, 2, 4, 5, 6}\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "True or false?
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "In order for {3} to be a subset of {1, 2, 4, 5, 6} it must be true that if\r\n" );
document.write( "you take any element from the set {3}, that element must also be one of \r\n" );
document.write( "the 5 elements of {1,2,4.5.6}.  There is only one element in {3} and that\r\n" );
document.write( "is 3.  So the question becomes this: \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Is 3 listed among the elements of {1, 2, 4, 5, 6} which are 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6?\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "To answer that, look and see if you see 3 among these five elements:\r\n" );
document.write( " 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6.  Do you see 3 listed among 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6?\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "If your answer is yes, then {3} is a subset of {1, 2, 4, 5, 6}\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "If your answer is no, then {3} is not a subset of {1, 2, 4, 5, 6}\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Which will it be?  Think real hard.\r\n" );
