Consider the first order predicate formula 𝜑 ∀𝑥 [(∀𝑧 𝑧|𝑥 ⇒ ((𝑧 = 𝑥) ∨ (𝑧 = 1))) ⇒

Q. Consider the first order predicate formula 𝜑:
∀𝑥 [(∀𝑧 𝑧|𝑥 ⇒ ((𝑧 = 𝑥) ∨ (𝑧 = 1))) ⇒ ∃𝑤 (𝑤 > 𝑥) 𝖠 (∀𝑧 𝑧|𝑤 ⇒ ((𝑤 = 𝑧) ∨ (𝑧 = 1)))]
Here ‘𝑎|𝑏’ denotes that ‘𝑎 divides 𝑏’, where 𝑎 and 𝑏 are integers. Consider the following sets:
S1.       {1,2,3, … , 100}
S2.       Set of all positive integers
S3.       Set of all integers
Which of the above sets satisfy 𝜑?
(A) S1 and S2(B) S1 and S3(C) S2 and S3(D) S1, S2 and S3
Ans: (C) S2 and S3
