Could you explain how to solve this real analysis problem in detail?

Let (X, d) be a metric space, and Y be a non-empty subset of X.
(i) Equip Y with the distance defined by restricting d to Y × Y, which we
denote by d again. Prove that (Y, d) is a metric space as well.
Notation: We say (Y, d) is a metric subspace of (X, d).
(ii) Suppose SC Y ≤ X. Prove that S is compact in (X, d) if and only if S is
compact in the metric subspace (Y, d).
