Let E be an equivalence relation on the set X .
prove that: X / (X / E) = E



The definition of euivalence class: x/E = { for every y in the X | xEy }



The set of all equivalence classes: X/E = { x/E | x is a member of X }

    You defined x/E but did not define X/E.

  • @WilliamElliot Yes you are right. I have edited the information and appended the definition of X/E.

    Ok. So how is X/E, a collection of subsets of X, an equivalence relation. X/E subset P(X). Equivalence relations for X are subsets of X×X.
