Let S = {1, 2, 3,....., m} , m > 3. Let $${X_1},\,....,\,{X_n}$$ be subsets of S each of size 3. Define a function f from S to the set of natural numbers as, f (i) is the number of sets $${X_j}$$ that contain the element i. That is $$f(i) = \left\{ {j\left| i \right.\,\, \in \,{X_j}} \right\}\left| . \right.$$

Then $$\sum\limits_{i - 1}^m {f\,(i)} $$ is

Let E, F and G be finite sets.
Let $$X = \,\left( {E\, \cap \,F\,} \right)\, - \,\left( {F\, \cap \,G\,} \right)$$
and $$Y = \,\left( {E\, - \left( {E\, \cap \,G} \right)} \right)\, - \,\left( {E\, - \,F\,} \right)$$. Which one of the following is true?

Let A be a set with n elements. Let C be a collection of distinct subsets of A such that for any two subsets $${S_1}$$ and $${S_2}$$ in C, either $${S_1}\, \subset \,{S_2}$$ or $${S_2}\, \subset \,{S_1}$$. What is the maximum cardinality of C?

Let R and S be any two equivalence relations on a non-emply set A. Which one of the following statements is TRUE?
