If \(A-B=B-A\), which conclusion is correct?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(A=B\)

Suppose an element belongs to A but not B. It would then belong to \(A-B\), but not to \(B-A\), contradicting equality. Similarly, an element belonging to B but not A would occur only in \(B-A\). Hence neither set can have an element absent from the other, so every element is common and \(A=B\).
