Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 57

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given set \(A=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}\)
Number of subsets of \(A\) which contain at least two elements is \({ }^{6} C_{2}+{ }^{6} C_{3}+{ }^{6} C_{4}+{ }^{6} C_{5}+{ }^{6} C_{6}\)
\(=2^{6}-{ }^{6} C_{0}-{ }^{6} C_{1}=64-1-6=57\)
