If the number of elements in a set is n, then there will be 2^n number of subsets.
For every set, the empty set {} is a subset as well as the full set.
So the subsets are { }, {A}, {B}, {C}, {A,B}, {A,C}, {B,C}, and {A,B,C}.
If the question is "find the number of proper subsets", then don't include the full set.
