Question
Let A and B be two sets having 3 and 6 elements respectively. Write the minimum number of elements that $\text{A}\cup\text{B}$ can have.

Answer

$\text{A}\cup\text{B}=\{\text{x : x}\in\text{A or x}\in\text{B}\}$ $\text{If A}\subset\text{B then A}\cup\text{B}=\{\text{x : x}\in\text{A}\}$ $\text{n(A}\cup\text{B)}=6$ $\text{If A}\not\subset\text{B = \{x : x}\in\text{A or x}\in\text{B}\}$ $\text{n(A}\cup\text{B)}>6$ The minimum number of elements that $\text{A}\cup\text{B}$ can have is 6.
