Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given sets A, B, C with cardinalities |A|=5, |B|=7, |C|=3, |A ∩ B|=2, |A ∩ C|=1, |B ∩ C|=1, |A ∩ B ∩ C|=0, find |A ∪ B ∪ C|.

💡 Hint: Follow the inclusion-exclusion formula step by step.

Question 2

Consider four sets P, Q, R, S where |P|=6, |Q|=5, |R|=4, |S|=3 and every intersection where two sets meet is 1, and three sets meet is 0. Calculate |P ∪ Q ∪ R ∪ S|.

💡 Hint: Tally each term carefully as directed.
