Question

carrie is finding the set of even numbers within the set of prime numbers. of the sets described, which is the universal set? all real numbers all integers prime numbers even numbers

Explanation:

The universal set is the set that contains all the elements under consideration for a particular problem. Here, Carrie is looking at even numbers within prime numbers. So the set of prime numbers is the universal set for this context because we are focusing on elements (even numbers) within the set of prime numbers. All real numbers and all integers are too broad as we are specifically dealing with prime numbers here, and even numbers is the subset we are finding within prime numbers, not the universal set.

Answer:

C. prime numbers
