We are given the following sets

A = {January, June, July}

D = {March, May, June}

F = {May, June, July}

We are asked to find the following

a. D - F

b. F - D

c. (A ∪ D) - F​

a. D - F

We have to subtract the set F from the set D

D - F = {March, May, June} - {May, June, July}

D - F = {March}

b. F - D

We have to subtract the set D from the set F

F - D = {May, June, July} - {March, May, June}

F - D = {July}

c. (A ∪ D) - F​

First, let us find the union of set A and D

A ∪ D = {January, June, July} ∪ {March, May, June}

A ∪ D = {January, March, May, June, July}

Now we have to subtract the set F from (A ∪ D)

(A ∪ D) - F = {January, March, May, June, July} - {May, June, July}

(A ∪ D) - F = {January, March, May}

Therefore, the results are

D - F = {March}

F - D = {July}

(A ∪ D) - F = {January, March, May}
