S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, T = {2,4,5,7} and R = {1,4, 5}, and (S∩T) ∪ R

Assessment: WAEC SSCE - General Mathematics - 1993 (Objective) Subject: General Mathematics

Question 1 Report

S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, T = {2,4,5,7} and R = {1,4, 5}, and (S∩T) ∪ R

Answer Details
The given problem involves set theory and requires finding the union and intersection of sets. We are given three sets: S, T, and R. Set S contains six elements, {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, set T contains four elements, {2, 4, 5, 7}, and set R contains three elements, {1, 4, 5}. First, we need to find the intersection of sets S and T, denoted as S∩T, which represents the elements that are common to both sets. The elements common to sets S and T are 2, 4, and 5. Next, we need to find the union of the intersection of sets S and T with set R, denoted as (S∩T) ∪ R, which represents all the elements that are in either set. The elements in (S∩T) ∪ R are {1, 2, 4, 5}. Therefore, the answer is {1, 2, 4, 5}.
