Let A: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}. Define B = {T
A : either 1
T or 2
T } and C = T
A : T the sum of all the elements of T is a prime number}. Then the number of elements in the set B
C is_______________

is a set containing sub sets of
containing element 1 and not containing 2 .
And
is a set containing subsets of
whose sum of elements is not prime.
So, we need to calculate number of subsets of
whose sum of elements plus 1 is composite.
Number of such 5 elements subset
Number of such 4 elements subset
(except selecting 3 or 7 )
Number of such 3 elements subset
(except selecting
or
)
Number of such 2 elements subset
(except selecting
)
Number of such 1 elements subset
(except selecting
or
)
Number of such 0 elements subset
