I don't think such a term is used in set theory. A proper subset, on the other hand, is a subset of the set, that is not equal to the set itself. The difference is comparable to the difference between "greater than" and "greater-or-equal", for real numbers.

What is a proper set?

There is no such concept as "proper set". Perhaps you mean "proper subset"; a set "A" is a "proper subset" of another set "B" if:It is a subset (every element of set A is also in set B)The sets are not equal, i.e., there are elements of set B that are not elements of set A.

Can any set be a proper set of itself?

NO- by definition a set is not a proper subset of itself . ( It is a subset, but not a proper one. )


Does every set have a proper subset?

No. The null set cannot have a proper subset. For any other set, the null set will be a proper subset. There will also be other proper subsets.


Why empty set is proper subset of every set?

It isn't. The empty set is a subset - but not a proper subset - of the empty set.


Is null set a proper subset of any set?

yes, if the set being described is empty, we can talk about proper and improper subsets. there are no proper subsets of the empty set. the only subset of the empty set is the empty set itself. to be a proper subset, the subset must be strictly contained. so the empty set is an improper subset of itself, but it is a proper subset of every other set.


Which set possesses only one proper subset?

A set with only one element in it. The only proper subset of such a set is the null set.


Which set does not have a proper subset?

The empty set.


What is the mean if you have 88569736?

To calculate the mean, you need a set of numbers. The mean is found by adding all the numbers together and then dividing by the total count of those numbers. If 88,569,736 is the only number in the set, the mean is simply 88,569,736. If there are additional numbers, please provide them for a proper calculation.


Is a nullset a proper subsets?

The null set is a proper subset of any non-empty set.


What are examples of a proper subset?

The set {1, 3} is a proper subset of {1, 2, 3}.The set {a, b, c, d, e} is a proper subset of the set that contains all the letters in the alphabet.All subsets of a given set are proper subsets, except for the set itself. (Every set is a subset of itself, but not a proper subset.) The empty set is a proper subset of any non-empty set.This sounds like a school question. To answer it, first make up any set you like. Then, as examples of proper subsets, make sets that contain some, but not all, of the members of your original set.
