F= {x| x is an even number between 10 & 20}
----
DUE
Since E is a subset of D, DUE = D
------
DUF
Since F is a subset of D, DUF = D

D U E = {x | x is a whole number or x is a perfect square < 10}

D U F = {x | x is a whole number or x is an even number between 10 & 20}


You can think of the union operation as an "or" operation.


Another example: Let A = {1,2} and B = {3,4}


So A U B = {1,2,3,4}. So it's like saying A U B = set A or set B
