If A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and B = {2, 4, 6} then what is the value of A - B ?

1. {2, 3, 5}
2. {1, 3, 5}
3. {2, 3, 6}
4. {1, 4, 5}

Correct Option: B

A new set having those elements which are in A but not in B is said to be the difference of sets A and B and it is denoted by A ? B.
Given that in question, A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and B = {2, 4, 6}
So the numbers which are in A and but not in B = {1, 3, 5}
? A ? B = {1, 3, 5}
