Let $A = \{1, 2, \{3, 4\}, 5\}$. Which of the following statements is incorrect and why?
${1, 2, 5} \in A$
${1, 2, 5} \in A$
(A) Given the set $A = \{1, 2, \{3, 4\}, 5\}$.
The elements of set $A$ are $1$,$2$,${3, 4}$,and $5$.
The statement ${1, 2, 5} \in A$ is incorrect because ${1, 2, 5}$ is a subset of $A$ (i.e.,${1, 2, 5} \subset A$),but it is not an element of $A$.
