Equivalent sets are sets that have the same cardinality. For finite sets it means that they have the same number of distinct elements.
For infinite sets, though, things get a bit complicated. Then it is possible for a set to be equivalent to a proper subset of itself: for example, the set of all integers is equivalent to the set of all even integers. What is required is a one-to-one mapping, f(x) = 2x, from the first set to the second.

Decimal equivalents for one fifth?
0.2
What are joint and disjoint sets?
Joint sets are sets with common element/s. Disjoint sets are sets without any common element/s.
What is the combination of two sets?
The combination of two sets is the Union of the sets and contains all the elements of both sets.
How many 50cm x 50cm tiles to cover 8m x 30m?
firstly, 1 metre is 2 sets of 50cm 2m=4 sets of 50cm 3m=6 sets of 50cm 4m=8 sets of 50cm 5m=10 sets of 50cm 6m=12 sets of 50cm 7m=14 sets of 50cm 8m=16 sets of 50cm 9m=18 sets of 50cm 10m=20 sets of 50cm 11m=22 sets of 50cm 12m=24 sets of 50cm 13m=26 sets of 50cm 14m=28 sets of 50cm 15m=30 sets of 50cm 16m=32 sets of 50cm 17m=34 sets of 50cm 18m=36 sets of 50cm 19m=38 sets of 50cm 20m=40 sets of 50cm 21m=42 sets of 50cm 22m=44 sets of 50cm 23m=46 sets of 50cm 24m=48 sets of 50cm 25m=50 sets of 50cm 26m=52 sets of 50cm 27m=54 sets of 50cm 28m=56 sets of 50cm 29m=58 sets of 50cm 30m=60 sets of 50cm if the measurements are 8 by 30 metres, this means that the area is covered by 16 times 60 amount of tiles which is the amount of 960 tiles altogether Source: A successful Graduate of Cambridge University
