How many elements does \(3^+\) have?
Choose one option.
Show answer
- A. \(4\)
Explanation
Since \(3^+=\{0,1,2,3\}\), it has four elements, one more than \(3\).
Review the concept: Construction of the naturals
The natural numbers are a set \(\mathbb{N}\) built inside set theory as finite ordinals, where each natural is the set of all naturals smaller than it.
\[n^+ = n \cup \{n\}\]
