Answer and explanation

Correct answer: {20}

Set difference B−A means elements that belong to B but do not belong to A; the order matters. Starting with B={10,20}, remove 10 because it is also in A={5,10,15}. The remaining element is 20, which is not in A. Hence B−A={20}, so option B is correct. A−B would be a different set, namely {5,15}.
