Match the column activity for finding the results of various operations

For these given sets, match the correct expression to its set.

U={0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}U = \{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9\}

A={1,3,5,7}A = \{1,3,5,7\}

B={2,3,5,8}B = \{2,3,5,8\}

C={0,2,4,6,8}C = \{0,2,4,6,8\}

Activity: Match The Columns!

Reorder the Set to match them with the correct Expression.

Expression
