Let S be the set of binary strings {010, 100, 110, 111,1110,01110,10111,11110,11111}. A relation R on S is defined as fol- lows: (a,b) ∈ R if and only if a ∈ S has the same number of 0’s as b ∈ S. Prove that R is an equivalence relation. Determine the partition of S that corresponds to R. (That is, determine all equivalence classes that form the partition)
