1.Set Theory
easy
If $S$ and $T$ are two sets such that $S$ has $21$ elements, $T$ has $32$ elements, and $S$ $\cap \,T$ has $11$ elements, how many elements does $S\, \cup$ $T$ have?
A
$42$
B
$42$
C
$42$
D
$42$
Solution
It is given that:
$n(S)=21, n(T)=32, n(S \cap T)=11$
We know that:
$n(S \cup T)=n(S)+n(T)-n(S \cap T)$
$\therefore n(S \cup T)=21+32-11=42$
Thus, the set $(S \cup T)$ has $42$ elements.
