Linearly independent/Basis in linear subspace/Exercise

Let ${}V$ be a ${}K$-vector space, and let ${}v_{1},\ldots ,v_{n}$ be a family of vectors in ${}V$. Show that the family is linearly independent if and only if there exists a linear subspace ${}U\subseteq V$ such that the family is a basis of ${}U$.
