Question
If A, B, C are three sets such that $\text{A}\subset\text{B},$ then prove that $\text{C} - \text{B}\subset\text{C} - \text{A}.$

Answer

We have, ACB To show: $\text{C} - \text{B}\subset\text{C} - \text{A}$ Let, $\text{x}\in\text{C} - \text{B}$ $\Rightarrow\text{x} \in \text{C and x}\not\in\text{B}$ $\Rightarrow\text{x} \in \text{C and x}\not\in\text{A}$ $[\because \text{A} \subset \text{B}]$ Thus, $\text{x} \in \text{C} - \text{B}\Rightarrow\text{x}\in \text{C} - \text{A}$ This is true for all $\text{x}\in\text{C} - \text{B}$ $\therefore \text{C} - \text{B} \subset \text{C} - \text{A}.$
