Journal Writing

While I’m doing this exercise, I found it easy in some way however some of the
word problems made it complicated to solve. But fortunately, I tried all my very best to
solve each problem especially those word problems that were difficult to solve.

On this activity, where the topic is about union and intersection, to take the
different possibilities, we have to cluster all the numbers or we called the “elements” in
the universal sets on its given subsets, and then draw a diagram or Venn diagram and
put all the elements in its designated sets if the elements either union of the set or an
intersection of both different sets, so through this it will make it easy for us to decide
and answer the problem solving.
