SET theory ... BIG CONFUSION

Hi All,

I was going thru some set theory questiona dthen got confused. Checked some we pages and onw of 'em had following info:

Formulas for three-component set problems:
u = union
n = intersection

1. For 3 sets A, B, and C: P(AuBuC) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C) – P(AnB) – P(AnC) – P(BnC) + P(AnBnC)

2. No of persons in exactly one set:
P(A) + P(B) + P(C) – 2P(AnB) – 2P(AnC) – 2P(BnC) + 3P(AnBnC)

3. No of persons in exactly two of the sets: P(AnB) + P(AnC) + P(BnC) – 3P(AnBnC)

4. No of persons in exactly three of the sets: P(AnBnC)

5. No of persons in two or more sets: P(AnB) + P(AnC) + P(BnC) – 2P(AnBnC)

6. No of persons in atleast one set:
P(A) + P(B) + P(C) - P(AnB) - P(AnC) - P(BnC) + 2 P(AnBnC)



Can somebody please explain what is the difference between 1 and 6?


Thanks much in advance!
