List all the subsets that have 0 elements, 1 element, 2 elements, 3 elements, etc until you reach 6 like so

List of Subsets with Six Elements: Empty Set {}

List of Subsets with One Element: {2}, {4}, {6}, {8}, {10}, {12}

List of Subsets with Two Elements: {2, 4}, {2, 6}, {2, 8}, {2, 10}, {2, 12}, {4, 6}, {4, 8}, {4, 10}, {4, 12}, {6, 8}, {6, 10}, {6, 12}, {8, 10}, {8, 12}, {10, 12}

List of Subsets with Three Elements: {2, 4, 6}, {2, 4, 8}, {2, 4, 10}, {2, 4, 12}, {2, 6, 8}, {2, 6, 10}, {2, 6, 12}, {2, 8, 10}, {2, 8, 12}, {2, 10, 12}, {4, 6, 8}, {4, 6, 10}, {4, 6, 12}, {4, 8, 10}, {4, 8, 12}, {4, 10, 12}, {6, 8, 10}, {6, 8, 12}, {6, 10, 12}, {8, 10, 12}

List of Subsets with Four Elements: {2, 4, 6, 8}, {2, 4, 6, 10}, {2, 4, 6, 12}, {2, 4, 8, 10}, {2, 4, 8, 12}, {2, 4, 10, 12}, {2, 6, 8, 10}, {2, 6, 8, 12}, {2, 6, 10, 12}, {2, 8, 10, 12}, {4, 6, 8, 10}, {4, 6, 8, 12}, {4, 6, 10, 12}, {4, 8, 10, 12}, {6, 8, 10, 12}

List of Subsets with Five Elements: {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}, {2, 4, 6, 8, 12}, {2, 4, 6, 10, 12}, {2, 4, 8, 10, 12}, {2, 6, 8, 10, 12}, {4, 6, 8, 10, 12}

List of Subsets with Six Elements: {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12}

If you count up the individual sets, you'll find that there are 64 different sets. You can also use the formula 2^n to get 2^6 = 64

So again, there are 64 different possible subsets of {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12}
