Question

If A = {x: x is a natural number}, B ={x: x is an even natural number}
C = {x: x is an odd natural number} and D = {x: x is a prime number},
find
(i) A ∩ B
(ii) A ∩ C
(iii) A ∩ D
(iv) B ∩ C
(v) B ∩ D
(vi) C ∩ D

Answer 1

A = {x: x is a natural number} = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5 …}
B ={x: x is an even natural number} = {2, 4, 6, 8 …}
C = {x: x is an odd natural number} = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9 …}
D = {x: x is a prime number} = {2, 3, 5, 7 …}
(i) A ∩B = {x: x is a even natural number} = B
(ii) A ∩ C = {x: x is an odd natural number} = C
(iii) A ∩ D = {x: x is a prime number} = D
(iv) B ∩ C = Φ
(v) B ∩ D = {2}
(vi) C ∩ D = {x: x is odd prime number}
