Let A and B be two sets having 4 and 7 elements respectively. Then write the maximum number of elements that A⋃B can be.
Here,
n(A) = 4 and n(B) = 7
Now, n(A⋃B) = n(A)+n(B) – n(A⋂B)
= 4 + 7 – n(A⋂B)
= 11 – n(A⋂B)
So,
n(A⋃B) is maximum whenever n(A⋂B) is minimum and it is possible only when A⋂B = ϕ
Now,
A⋂B = ϕ then min(n(A⋂B)) = 0.
∴ min(n(A⋃B)) =11 – 0 =11
