Ateacher wants to create groups of students working together or independently.

how many different subsets can she form? use polya's 4 step reasoning process to create groups containing 4, 3, 2, and 1 students then count how many subsets are available.

choose a method to include all possibilities and show your work.

students: { abby, ben, chris, dave }

show all the possible subsets. groups (subsets) should include all possible combinations of 1 student, 2 students, 3 students, and 4 students. a group of 0 students does not make sense in this situation.
