If n(A) = 45, n(B) = 38, and only A has 19 elements, that is, n(A − B) = 19, what is n(A ∩ B)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 26

Set A is divided into two disjoint parts: the elements only in A, represented by A − B, and the elements common to A and B, represented by A ∩ B. Therefore n(A) = n(A − B) + n(A ∩ B). Using the given values, 45 = 19 + n(A ∩ B), so n(A ∩ B) = 45 − 19 = 26. Hence option B is the only correct answer.
