Question
Let A = {a, b, c}. What is the equivalence relation of smallest cardinality on A? What is the equivalence relation of largest cardinality on A?

Solution
R = {{a, a), (b, b), (c, c)} is this smallest cardinality of A to make it equivalence relation n(R) = 3
R = {(a, a), (a, b), (a, c), (b, c), (b, b), {b, a), (c, a), (c, b), (c, c)}
n(R) = 9 is the largest cardinality of R to make it equivalence
