Short Answer
The answer outlines a process to divide a group of five individuals, ensuring that Kai and Wen are in separate subgroups. It details the initial divisions, recursive subgroup subdivisions, and emphasizes the limitations imposed by the constraints on total division options.
Step 1: Identify Initial Groups
Begin by identifying the five people in the group: {Kai, Wen, A, B, C}. Since Kai and Wen cannot be in the same subgroup, we need to form two disjoint subgroups. There are two distinctive scenarios for the first division where Kai and Wen are separated. These are:
- Group 1: {Kai, A, B} and Group 2: {Wen, C}
- Group 1: {Kai, A, C} and Group 2: {Wen, B}
- Group 1: {Kai, B, C} and Group 2: {Wen, A}
Step 2: Recursive Subgroup Divisions
Once the initial groups are formed, we must continue dividing each subgroup until every individual stands alone in their respective subgroup. Investigate how to split the selected groups:
- For subgroup {Kai, A, B}, we can explore the potential splits.
- For subgroup {Wen, C}, since there are only two members, they can be divided into {Wen} and {C} directly.
Step 3: Assess Total Division Options
While estimating the overall divisions, note that the total number of ways to ultimately divide the group will be less than if there were no constraints. Examine the viable divisions based on the initial groups established:
- Each of the 3 initial divisions leads to a unique process of further subdivisions.
- Recursively dividing each subgroup, taking into consideration the specified constraints will limit the valid outcomes.
