The equivalent set will be <u>A U B = {1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8}</u>
<h3>Set theory</h3>
Given the following sets
U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8},
A ={2, 4, 6},
B = {1, 2, 5, 8},C = {1, 3, 7}
Required sets
A U B
Since union means that we are to write out all the values in the set A and B, hence the equivalent set will be;
A U B = {1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8}
