Original question and givens

Let the explicit universe be U={941, 942, 943, 944, 945} and A={941, 943}⊆U. Find the relative complement U\A, listing each element once in increasing order.

  • G001 — Let the explicit universe be U={941, 942, 943, 944, 945} and A={941, 943}⊆U. Find the relative complement U\A, listing each element once in increasing order.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source roles = [qf-finite-relative-complement, no-domain-field, no-operation-field, no-form-field]

After

derived = [[numeric_sorted_set_STRING_or_empty_symbol]]

Conditions: none

Check THIS bank interface:BASE equations use form/domain;BASE events/complement have no operation;factorials have no domain.ext18 uses local hyphens,other legacy operations underscores.Do not force every answer into a tuple or fraction.
