Answer

A∩(B∪C)={1,3,5}

Work Step by Step

A={1,3,5,7} B={1,2,3} C={2,3,4,5,6} TO FIND A∩(B∪C) Let's first find B∪C B∪C = {1,2,3} ∪ {2,3,4,5,6} = {1,2,3,4,5,6} (All the elements of B and C which are not in B) Then A∩(B∪C) = {1,3,5,7} ∩ {1,2,3,4,5,6} = {1,3,5} (Common elements of A and (B∪C)) Thus A∩(B∪C)={1,3,5}
