The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \( A - (A - B) \), we will follow a step-by-step approach using set theory concepts. ### Step 1: Understand the expression \( A - (A - B) \) The expression \( A - (A - B) \) represents the elements that are in set \( A \) but not in the set \( A - B \). ### Step 2: Define \( A - B \) The operation \( A - B \) means we take all the elements in set \( A \) and remove any elements that are also in set \( B \). This can be visualized as the part of set \( A \) that does not overlap with set \( B \). ### Step 3: Visualize using Venn Diagram 1. Draw two overlapping circles: one for set \( A \) and one for set \( B \). 2. The area of set \( A \) that does not overlap with set \( B \) represents \( A - B \). 3. The remaining area of set \( A \) that overlaps with set \( B \) represents \( A \cap B \) (the intersection of sets \( A \) and \( B \)). ### Step 4: Calculate \( A - (A - B) \) Now, we need to subtract \( A - B \) from \( A \): - When we take \( A - (A - B) \), we are left with the elements that are in \( A \) but not in the part of \( A \) that does not overlap with \( B \). - This means we are left with the elements that are in both \( A \) and \( B \), which is \( A \cap B \). ### Conclusion Thus, the result of the expression \( A - (A - B) \) is: \[ A - (A - B) = A \cap B \] ### Final Answer The answer to the expression \( A - (A - B) \) is \( A \cap B \). ---
