4.Complement of a set:
a) A’/ Ac = ∪ – A
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} – {1, 3, 4, 6}
= {2, 5, 7}
b) B’/ Bc = ∪ – B
= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} – {2, 3, 4, 5}
= {1, 6, 7}
4.Cartesian product: Let A = {a, b} and B= {1, 2} are two sets, then the
Cartesian product,
a) A×B = {a, b} × {1, 2}
= {(a, 1), (a, 2), (b, 1), (b, 2)}
b) B×A = {1, 2} × {a, b}
= {(1, a), (1, b), (2, a), (2, b)}

1. A ∪ B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
2. A ∩ B = {3, 4}
3. A – B = {1, 6}
4. A’/ Ac = {2, 5, 7}
5. A×B = {(a, 1), (a, 2), (b, 1), (b, 2)}
5.Number of elements in a finite set: If A, B and c are not disjoint set then,
• n(A ∪ B ∪ C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(c) – n(A ∪ B) – n(B ∪ C) - n(A ∪ C) + n(A ∪
B ∪ C)

Solution: Let P, S and B are the set of the total population service holders &
businessmen respectively.
So,
n(P) = 2,00,00,000
n(S) = 35,00,000
n(B) = 25,00,000
n(S ∩ B) = 10,00,000
So, the number of the people who at least one position is n(S ∩ B)
We know,
n(S ∪ B) = n(S) + n(B) – n(S ∩ B)
= 35,00,000 + 25,00,000 – 10,00,000
= 50,00,000
The number of the people who are neither service holders nor businessmen is
= n(P) – n(S ∪ B)
= 2,00,00,000 – 50,00,000
= 1,50,00,000
❖ Out of 30 students in a quantitively neither course, 12 are majoring in
Accounting, 10 in Finance and 11 in Economics. There are 5 double majors
in Accounting and Economics, 4 in Finance and Economics, 6 in Accounting
and Finance a 2 triple majors.
Solution: Let S, A, F and E are the set of the total students Accounting, Finance
and Economics respectively.
So,
n(S) = 30
n(A) = 12
n(F) = 10
n(E) = 11
n(A ∩ E) = 5
n(F ∩ E) = 4
n(A ∩ F) = 6
n(A ∩ F ∩ E) = 2
So, the number of the students who at least one position is n(A ∪ F ∪ E)
We know,
n(A ∪ F ∪ E) = n(A) + n(F) + n(E) –n(A ∩ E) – n(F ∩ E) – n(A ∩ F) + n(A ∩ F ∩ E)
= 12 + 10 + 11 – 6 – 5 – 4 + 2
= 20
The number of the students who are not majoring any of three subjects is
= n(S) – n(A ∩ F ∩ E)
= 30 – 20
= 10
a) The number of the students who only major Accounting is
= n(A) – n(A ∩ F) – n(A ∩ E) + n(A ∩ F ∩ E)
=12 – 6 – 5 + 2
=3
b) The number of the students who only major Finance is
= n(F) – n(F ∩ E) – n(A ∩ F) – n(A ∩ F ∩ E)
=10 – 6 – 4 + 2
=2
c) The number of the students who only major Economics is
= n(E) – n(A ∩ E) – n(F ∩ E) + n(A ∪ F ∪ E)
= 11 – 5 – 4 + 2
=4
∴The number of the students who are majoring only one subject is = 3 + 2 + 4
=9
