Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 20

There are 25 multiples of 2 from 1 to 50 and 10 multiples of 5. The numbers counted in both sets are multiples of 10, of which there are 5. Thus |A ∪ B| = 25 + 10 − 5 = 30. By De Morgan's law, A' ∩ B' = (A ∪ B)', so |A' ∩ B'| = 50 − 30 = 20. Hence, option A is correct.
