for every n = 1, 2....S. Then the number of elements in the set
is _______

5 times the sum of missing number should be less than 36.
If 1 digit is missing = 7
If 2 digit is missing = 9
If 3 digit is missing-2
If 0 digit is missing = 1
Alternate
A is subset of S hence
A can have elements:
type 1 : { }
type 2: {E 1 }, {E 2 },......{E 8 }
type 3: {E l , E 2 },{E 1 ,E 3 }......{E 1 ,E 8 }
.
.
.
type 6: {E 1 , E 2 ,.......E 5 },.......{E 4 , E 5 , E 6 , E 7 , E 8 }
type 7: [E 1 , E 2 ,.......E 6 ],.......{E 3 , E 4 ,...........E 8 }
type 8: {E 1 , E 2 ,.......E 7 }{E 2 ,E 3 ,.........E 8 }
type 9: {E 1 , E 2 ,.......E 8 }
As
;
Note : Type 1 to Type 4 elements can not be in set A as maximum probability of type 4 elements.
{E 5 ,E 6 , E 7 ,E 8 }is 
Now for Type 5 acceptable elements let's call probability as P 5

n 1 +n 2 +n 3 +n 4 +n 5
28.8
Hence, 2 possible ways {E 5 , E 6 , E 7 , E 8 , E 3 or E 4 }
P 6 = n 1 + n 2 + n 3 + n 4 + n 5 + n 6
28.8
9 possible ways

1 possible ways
P 8
n 1 + n 2 +..........+ n 8
28.8
1 possible way
Total = 19
