Finitary relation over sets X1, …, Xn is a subset of the Cartesian product X1 × … × Xn;
that is, it is a set of n-tuples (x1, …, xn) consisting of elements xi in Xi.[1][2][3][4]

Typically, the relation describes a possible connection between
the elements of an n-tuple.

For example, the relation "x is divisible by y and z" consists of
the set of 3-tuples such that when substituted to x, y and z, respectively,
make the sentence true.
