Last Updated On: Fri Aug 28 2026Question
For three sets A, B, and C, n(A intersection B) = 18 and n(A intersection B intersection C) = 7. How many elements are in A and B only?
Solution
- n(A intersection B) includes the elements common to all three sets.
- Elements in A and B only = 18 - 7.
- Therefore, 11 elements are in A and B only.
