Math Problem Statement
Let the Universal set be the letters a through j: U = {a, b, ..., i, j}.
Let A = {a, b, e, g}, B = {a, c, g, h}, and C = {b, g, h, j}
List the elements of the set A∩(B∪C)A∩(B∪C)
Solution
We are given the universal set and three sets:
We need to find the elements of the set .
Step 1: Find (the union of sets B and C)
The union of two sets includes all the elements that are in either one or both of the sets. Therefore:
Step 2: Find (the intersection of A with )
The intersection of two sets includes only the elements that are present in both sets. So, we now find the elements that are in both and .
The common elements between and are:
Thus, the set is .

- How would you find ?
Tip: The intersection of two sets always contains elements common to both, whereas the union contains all elements from both sets.
