Difference of Sets is \(\{1, 2, 3\}\)
Difference set example
The difference set \(\displaystyle A \setminus B\) consists of the elements that are in A but not in B. In other words, the elements contained in \(B\) are removed (subtracted) from \(A\).
The difference of \(\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}\) and \(\{4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9\}\) is \(\{1,2,3 \}\), because \(1,2,3\) is only contained in \(A\).
