Let's solve each problem step by step.
We are asked to find:
-
Union (A ∪ B): All elements that are in
A, in
B, or in
both.
-
Intersection (A ∩ B): Only the elements that are in
both A and B.
---
1. A = {2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14} and B = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15}
Union (A ∪ B):
Combine all elements from both sets without repetition.
- A has: 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14
- B has: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15
- Common elements: 6, 12
So union includes all unique elements:
> A ∪ B = {2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15}
Intersection (A ∩ B):
Only elements present in both sets:
- 6 and 12 are in both A and B
> A ∩ B = {6, 12}
✔ Answer:
- A ∪ B = {2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15}
- A ∩ B = {6, 12}

2. A = {5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40} and B = {10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60}
Union (A ∪ B):
All unique elements from both sets.
- A: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40
- B: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60
- Common: 10, 20, 30, 40
Union includes all:
> A ∪ B = {5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 50, 60}
Intersection (A ∩ B):
Elements common to both:
- 10, 20, 30, 40
> A ∩ B = {10, 20, 30, 40}
✔ Answer:
- A ∪ B = {5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 50, 60}
- A ∩ B = {10, 20, 30, 40}

3. A = {a, b, d, e, g, h, m, o} and B = {d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o}
Union (A ∪ B):
All unique letters from both sets.
- A: a, b, d, e, g, h, m, o
- B: d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o
- Combine: Include all from A and any new from B
New in B: f, i, j, k, l, n
So:
> A ∪ B = {a, b, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o}
Intersection (A ∩ B):
Common elements:
- d, e, g, h, m, o
> A ∩ B = {d, e, g, h, m, o}
✔ Answer:
- A ∪ B = {a, b, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o}
- A ∩ B = {d, e, g, h, m, o}

4. A = {2, 4, 6, 8} and B = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11}
Union (A ∪ B):
All elements from both sets — no overlap.
- A: even numbers from 2 to 8
- B: odd numbers from 1 to 11
No common elements → just combine:
> A ∪ B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11}
Intersection (A ∩ B):
No element is in both sets → empty set
> A ∩ B = {} or ∅
✔ Answer:
- A ∪ B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11}
- A ∩ B = ∅
---
5. A = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10} and B = {3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11}
Union (A ∪ B):
All unique elements.
- A: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10
- B: 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11
- Common: 4
So combine:
> A ∪ B = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11}
Intersection (A ∩ B):
Only 4 is in both sets
> A ∩ B = {4}
✔ Answer:
- A ∪ B = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11}
- A ∩ B = {4}
---
✔ Final Answers:
1.
- A ∪ B = {2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15}
- A ∩ B = {6, 12}
2.
- A ∪ B = {5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 50, 60}
- A ∩ B = {10, 20, 30, 40}
3.
- A ∪ B = {a, b, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o}
- A ∩ B = {d, e, g, h, m, o}
4.
- A ∪ B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11}
- A ∩ B = ∅
5.
- A ∪ B = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11}
- A ∩ B = {4}
