If A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {2, 3, 4}, which is not a subset of A ∩ B?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: {2, 4}
The intersection A ∩ B contains exactly the elements common to both A and B. Comparing the two sets gives A ∩ B = {2, 3}. The empty set, {2}, and {3} are all subsets because every one of their elements belongs to {2, 3}. However, {2, 4} contains 4, and 4 is not in the intersection. Therefore, option D is not a subset.
