The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the number of elements in the smallest subset of \( X \) that contains elements from both sets \( A \) and \( B \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Set \( X \)**: \[ X = \{ x : 1 \leq x \leq 50, x \in \mathbb{N} \} \] This means \( X \) contains all natural numbers from 1 to 50. 2. **Define the Set \( A \)**: \[ A = \{ x : x \text{ is a multiple of } 2 \} \] The multiples of 2 from 1 to 50 are: \[ A = \{ 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50 \} \] The number of elements in \( A \) is \( 25 \) (since \( 50/2 = 25 \)). 3. **Define the Set \( B \)**: \[ B = \{ x : x \text{ is a multiple of } 7 \} \] The multiples of 7 from 1 to 50 are: \[ B = \{ 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49 \} \] The number of elements in \( B \) is \( 7 \) (since \( 49/7 = 7 \)). 4. **Find the Intersection \( A \cap B \)**: We need to find the common elements in \( A \) and \( B \), which are the multiples of both 2 and 7 (i.e., multiples of \( 14 \)): \[ A \cap B = \{ 14, 28, 42 \} \] The number of elements in \( A \cap B \) is \( 3 \). 5. **Use the Principle of Inclusion-Exclusion**: To find the number of elements in the union \( A \cup B \): \[ N(A \cup B) = N(A) + N(B) - N(A \cap B) \] Substituting the values: \[ N(A \cup B) = 25 + 7 - 3 = 29 \] Thus, the number of elements in the smallest subset of \( X \) that contains elements from both \( A \) and \( B \) is \( 29 \). ### Final Answer: \[ \text{The number of elements in the smallest subset of } X \text{ which contains elements of both } A \text{ and } B \text{ is } 29. \]
