Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 15

The union A ∪ B is divided into three pairwise disjoint regions: elements only in A, counted by |A \ B|; elements only in B, counted by |B \ A|; and common elements, counted by |A ∩ B|. Hence 70 = 25 + 30 + |A ∩ B|. Solving gives |A ∩ B| = 70 − 55 = 15, so option A is correct.
