Answer: 32

Step-by-step explanation:

If a set has n items inside it, then there will be 2^n different subsets. This includes the original set itself (since any set is a subset of itself).

Here we have n = 5 items in the given set, so there are 2^5 = 32 different subsets.

For more information, I recommend looking up the term "power set".
