👉 In mathematics, a multidentate is an algebraic structure where each element has more than one type of factor. This means that every element in the multidentate can be written as a combination of elements from other sets or classes. For example, consider a set A consisting of 3 elements: {a, b, c}. The multidentate containing these elements is denoted by {a, b, c}, which has two types of factors: {a} and {b,
