Suppose P and Q are equivalent sets and n(P)=17. What is the minimum number of elements in P and Q? the maximum number in P and Q? The minimum number or elements in P or Q? and the maximum in P or Q?
--------
Equivalent sets have the same number of elements.
----
minimum # in P AND Q is zero
----
minimum # in P OR Q is 17
----
maximum # in P OR Q is 34
