If A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6} and R is a relation on A such that R = {(a, b) : a, b ∈ A and b is exactly divisible by a} then find the number of elements present in the range of R?
- 2
- 4
- 6
- 5
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Explanation:
It is given that A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6} and R is a relation on A such that R = {(a, b) : a, b ∈ A and b is exactly divisible by a}
The given R can be re-written in roaster form as R = {(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 6), (2, 2), (2, 4), (2, 6), (3, 3), (3, 6), (4, 4), (6, 6)}.
As we know, Range (R) = {b: (a, b) ∈ R}
Therefore, range (R) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 6} = A∈ n(A) = 5
Hence, the correct option is (D).

Relations and functions
A relation R from a non-empty set B is a subset of the cartesian product A × B. The subset is derived by describing a relationship between the first element and the second element of the ordered pairs in A × B.
A relation f from a set A to a set B is said to be a function if every element of set A has one and only one image in set B. In other words, no two distinct elements of B have the same pre-image.
Representation of Relation and Function
Relations and functions can be represented in different forms such as arrow representation, algebraic form, set-builder form, graphically, roster form, and tabular form. Define a function f: A = {1, 2, 3} → B = {1, 4, 9} such that f(1) = 1, f(2) = 4, f(3) = 9. Now, represent this function in different forms.
- Set-builder form - {(x, y): f(x) = y2, x ∈ A, y ∈ B}
- Roster form - {(1, 1), (2, 4), (3, 9)}
- Arrow Representation
