Question

Let U = {a, b, c, d, e, f, g}. Find the complement of the set A below.

A = {a, c, e, g}

Answer 1

`A' = \{b,d,f\}`

Explanation:

Given

`U = \{a, b, c, d, e, f, g\}`

`A = \{a, c, e, g\}`

Required

Find the complement of A

The complement of A are elements in the universal set (U) but not in A.

In other words,

if
`A = \{a, c, e, g\}`

then A' are the elements other than a, c, e and g that are in the universal set

So

`A' = \{b,d,f\}`

Where A' represents the complement
