# Two sets

Suppose Set B contains 69 elements and the total number elements in either Set A or Set B is 124. If the Sets A and B have 29 elements in common, how many elements are contained in set A?

Correct result:

A =  55

#### Solution:

$B=69 \ \\ AB=A\cap B \ \\ AB=29 \ \\ B_{1}=B - AB=69 - 29=40 \ \\ T=124 \ \\ \ \\ A=T - AB - B_{1}=124 - 29 - 40=55$
