Question

9 Determine whether each pair of the following sets is an equal set or not.

(a) M= {prime factors of 8}; N= {prime factors of 32}
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Therefore the sets are Equal,

M ≡ N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

M= {prime factors of 8};

N= {prime factors of 32}

To Check:

Whether M is equal to N

Solution:

M= {prime factors of 8};

prime factors of 8 = 2×2×2

N= {prime factors of 32}

prime factors of 32 = 2×2×2×2×2

So Prime Factor = 2

Therefore

M= { 2 };

N= { 2 }

Therefore the sets are Equal,

M ≡ N
