In general: If a set has n elements, then it will have \"2%5En\" subsets.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In this case, n = 18, so there are \"2%5En+=+2%5E18+=+262144\" different subsets.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the answer is 262144
\n" ); document.write( "
