Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Define a new relation on the set of integers where A ≤ B means A can be grouped to form B. Prove that this relation is a partial order.

💡 Hint: Think about how fractions can form larger sets for grouping.

Question 2

Given the subset relation, identify the Hasse diagram for {1, 2, {1, 2}}. Clarify all relationships.

💡 Hint: Reflect on how smaller sets fit within larger ones, like visualizing building blocks.
