MCQ
If $\ce{n(A) = 65, n(B)} = 32$ and $\ce{n(A ∩ B)} = 14,$ then $\ce{n(A \triangle B)}$ equals:
  • A
    $65$
  • B
    $47$
  • C
    $97$
  • $69$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$69$
$ \text{n}(\text{A}\triangle\text{B})= \text{n(A - B)} +\text{ n(B - A)}$
$\therefore​​​(\text{A}\triangle\text{B})=\text{ (A - B)} ∪ \text{(B - A)}$
$​​\Rightarrow (\text{A}\triangle\text{B}) = \text{n(A)} \text{ -n(A ∩ B)} +\text{ n(B)} − \text{n(A ∩ B)}$
$​​\Rightarrow (\text{A}\triangle\text{B})=\text{ n(A)} +\text{ n(B)} \text{ -2n} (A∩B)$
$= 65 + 32 - 2 \times 14$
$= 69$
