Question

Consider the sets:U = {1, 2, {1}, {2}, {1, 2}}     A = {1, 2, {1}}      B = {{1}, {1, 2}}     C = {2, {1}, {2}}A – B is the set:a.{1, 2}b.{1, {1, 2}}c.{ }d.{{1, 2}}

Solution

The operation A - B means we are looking for elements that are in set A but not in set B.

Set A = {1, 2, {1}} Set B = {{1}, {1, 2}}

Comparing these two sets, we see that the elements 1 and 2 are in set A but not in set B.

Therefore, A - B = {1, 2}

So, the answer is a. {1, 2}
