Question

Identify whether the following is set or not? Justify your answer.

A collection of most dangerous animals of the world.

Short Note

Solution

A collection of the most dangerous animals in the world is not well defined because opinions about ‘most dangerous animals’ vary from person to person, and hence, it does not form a set.

Hence, this collection is not a set.
