Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (A \ B) ∩ (A \ C)

An element belongs to A \ (B ∪ C) when it is in A but not in B ∪ C. Not being in B ∪ C means that it is neither in B nor in C. Thus the element must belong simultaneously to A \ B and A \ C. Consequently, A \ (B ∪ C) = (A \ B) ∩ (A \ C). This is the set-difference form of De Morgan’s law.
