Question

Three sets have 5, 10, 15 elements, respectively. How many elements can their union and intersection have?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$Union = 15$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n(A) = 5; n(B) = 10; n(C) = 15$

Solving (a): Possible union elements

This is the represented by element with the largest number of the sets

i.e.

$Union = 15$

Solving (b): Possible intersection elements

This is the represented by element with the least number of the sets

i.e.

$Intersection = 5$
