M and N are two subsets of the universal set (U). If n(U) = 48, n(M) = 20, n(N) = 30 and n(MUN) = 40, find n(M \(\cap\) N)
A.
18
B.
20
C.
30
D.
38
Correct answer is D
Let n(M \(\cup\) N \) = x
Then 20 - x + x + 30
- x = n(M \(\cup\) N)
50 - x = 40
50 - 40 = x
10 = x
x = 10
Hence, n(M \(\cup\N)' = 8 + (20 - 10) + (30 + 10)
= 8 + 10 + 20
= 38
