The following Venn diagram shows the universal set \(U\) and the sets \(A\) and \(B\).

  1. Shade the area in the diagram which represents the set B ∩ A'. n(U) = 100, n(A) = 30, n(B) = 50, n(A ∪ B) = 65.
  2. Find n(B ∩ \(A\prime\)).
  3. An element is selected at random from U. What is the probability that this element is in B ∩ \(A\prime\) ?
