Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: (iii)
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
Disjoint sets have empty intersection. We check each pair for any shared elements.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
Look for any common member between the two sets in each pair.
Step-by-Step Solution:
(i) Common element 4 → not disjoint(ii) Common element e → not disjoint(iii) No integer is both even and odd → disjoint
Verification / Alternative check:
Intersections: (i) {4}, (ii) {e}, (iii) ϕ.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They identify pairs that are not disjoint or select multiple when only one applies.
Common Pitfalls:
Overlooking boundary elements like 4 in (i).
Final Answer:
(iii)
