Go to Insert > Symbol > More Symbols. In the Subset dropdown, choose Number Forms. Note: Not all fonts have a number forms subset. If you don’t see the number forms subset available for your font you will have to use a different font, such as Calibri, to insert the fraction character.

How do you write a subset symbol?

Subset of a Set. A subset is a set whose elements are all members of another set. The symbol «⊆» means «is a subset of». The symbol «⊂» means «is a proper subset of».

How do I get all the symbols in Word?

Method 1: Insert > Symbol

What is subscript example?

Subscript is the text which a small letter/number is written after a particular letter/number. It hangs below its letter or number. It is used when writing chemical compounds. An example of subscript is N₂.

Set is a collection of different elements. It could be numbers, alphabets, etc. Various symbols are used to denote them (like ℝ denote set of Real Numbers) and their relationship and operation (subset, union, etc).

These set symbols helps to represent mathematical ideas in a concise way and saves space and time. In this blog we have listed all the commonly used Set symbols together and how to get them in Ms Word along with their keyboard shortcuts

List of set symbols along with their meaning and how to get them in Ms Word

Three methods to get symbols in Ms Word

Insert Symbol Method: Go to Insert > Symbols and select More Symbols. In the symbol window, click the desired symbol and hit insert. Following table gives the subset dropdown option of each symbol that can help you find a symbol.

Math AutoCorrect: This is the smartest way to get any symbol in Ms Word. Simply type the Math AutoCorrect text and hit space to get symbol. It works inside Equation editor. However, you can make it work outside equation editor, with following one time setting.

• Go to File > Options to open Word Options
• In Proofing and select AutoCorrect Options
• In Math Autocorrect tab, check box against “Use Math AutoCorrect rules outside of math regions”

Alt X Method: Type the Alt X code of symbol and press Alt + X immediately after it to get symbol.

Let’s say, P = {1, 2, 3, 4} and Q = {1, 3, 5}

I assume you are actually using Equation Tools (integrated formula editing functionality) in a reasonably new version of Word and not the old, primitive Equation Editor (which is still available in new versions but hardly ever used).

If you really want a superscript to appear before an identifier (which is nonstandard for binomial coefficients but may appear in other contexts as correct notation), the simplest way is to select, in the Structures group in Equation Tools, open the Script menu. Click on the rightmost construct under Subscripts and Superscripts:

Then click on the superscript box and type the superscript. You should now have:

Then click on the subscript box and type a space to make it disappear. Now click on the larger box and type the identifier and any associated content (in this case, C_0) there.

Remember to change the C to Normal Text (it must not appear in italic, as it is a symbol with fixed meaning and not a variable).

Word offers different ways how to create a vector in the document:

   I.  Using the Equation:

This way is perfect if you do not need to care about the format and compatibility with previous versions of Microsoft Office (a recommended approach for physical science and mathematics that require a lot of math in the text with consistent fonts for all equations and symbols):

   1.   In the paragraph where you want to insert the vector, then click Alt+= to insert the equitation block:

   2.   In the equitation block, type the vector magnitude and select it. It can be one letter, several letters, or even an expression.

For example: .

   3.   On the Equation tab, in the Structures group, click the Accent button:

In the Accent list, choose Bar or Rightwards Arrow Above:

  or  

Note: If you want to continue working with this equation, click the right arrow twice to exit the box below the vector:  →  → . So, to continue working with the equation, it should not have any selected data.

   II.  Using AutoCorrect for Math:

When you work with many documents and often need to paste a single special symbol, you do not need to insert an equation each time. Microsoft Word offers a helpful feature named AutoCorrect. The AutoCorrect options in Microsoft Word propose two different ways to quickly add any special character, or even
large pieces of text:

• Using
  the
  Replace text as you type function of the AutoCorrect options.
• Using the Math AutoCorrect options:

Using this method, you can benefit from the Math AutoCorrect options without inserting an equation. To turn on or turn off the AutoCorrect of the Math symbols, do the following:

   1.   On the File tab, click Options:

   2.   In the Word Options dialog box, on the
Proofing tab, click the AutoCorrect Options… button:

   3.   In the AutoCorrect dialog box, on the Math AutoCorrect tab, select the Use Math AutoCorrect rules outside of the math regions option:

After clicking OK, you can use any of the listed Names of symbols, and Microsoft Word will replace them with the appropriate symbols:

Note: If you do not need the last replacement, click Ctrl+Z to cancel it.

   III.  Using a Symbol dialog box:

Microsoft Word offers a very convenient ability to combine two characters (see
Superimposing characters). To add some element to a symbol, such as a bar, apostrophe, etc., enter a symbol and immediately insert a vector mark from the Combining Diacritical Marks for Symbols subset of any font (if it exists).

To combine an element with the entered symbol, open the Symbol dialog box:

On the Insert tab, in the Symbols group, select the Symbol button, and then click More Symbols…:

On the Symbol dialog box:

• In the Font list, select the Segoe IU Symbol font,
• Optionally, to find symbols faster, in the Subset list, select the Combining Diacritical Marks for Symbols subset,
• Select the symbol:

  

• Click the Insert button to insert the symbol,
• Click the OK button to close the Symbol dialog box.
