Question

Set A = {cake, cookie, pie, scone} and Set B = {brownie, pie, scone, tart}.

Determine the elements in A ∩ B.

{brownie, cake, cookie, pie, scone, tart}
{pie, scone}
{brownie, cake, cookie, pie, pie, scone, scone, tart}
{cake, cookie, pie, scone}

Answer 1

The intersection of two sets, denoted by An B, is the set of elements that are
common to both sets.
the elements that are common to both Set A and Set B are "pie" and
"scone".
So, An B = {"pie", "scone"}.
Therefore, the elements in An Bare {"pie", "scone"}?

Answer 2

The intersection of Set A and Set B results in a new set that contains only the common elements of both sets. In this case, Set A contains four elements {cake, cookie, pie, scone}, and Set B contains four elements {brownie, pie, scone, tart}. The elements that are common to both sets A and B are pie and scone. Therefore, the resulting set A ∩ B contains only those two elements {pie, scone}.
