A\text{A}

Step-by-step solution

5 steps
  1. Determine the elements of set A.

    Set AA is the set of even natural numbers less than 8.
    The natural numbers are {1,2,3,… }\{1, 2, 3, \dots\}.
    The even natural numbers less than 8 are {2,4,6}\{2, 4, 6\}.
    So, A={2,4,6}A = \{2, 4, 6\}.
    The number of elements in set AA is n(A)=3n(A) = 3.

  2. Determine the elements of set B.

    Set BB is the set of prime numbers less than 7.
    The prime numbers are natural numbers greater than 1 that have no positive divisors other than 1 and themselves.
    The prime numbers less than 7 are {2,3,5}\{2, 3, 5\}.
    So, B={2,3,5}B = \{2, 3, 5\}.
    The number of elements in set BB is n(B)=3n(B) = 3.

  3. Calculate the number of elements in the Cartesian product A×BA \times B.

    The number of elements in A×BA \times B is given by the product of the number of elements in AA and the number of elements in BB.

    n(A×B)=n(A)×n(B)n(A \times B) = n(A) \times n(B) n(A×B)=3×3=9n(A \times B) = 3 \times 3 = 9
  4. Calculate the number of relations from A to B.

    A relation from set AA to set BB is any subset of A×BA \times B.
    If a set has mm elements, then the number of its subsets is 2m2^m.
    Since A×BA \times B has 9 elements, the total number of possible relations from AA to BB is 2n(A×B)2^{n(A \times B)}.

    Number of relations=29\text{Number of relations} = 2^9
  5. Select the correct option.

    The calculated number of relations is 292^9, which corresponds to option (A).
