Cardinal number of some sets

The number of distinct elements in a finite set A is called the Cardinal number of set A and it is denoted by n(A).
For example, if set A={1,3,7,11,13} then n(A)=5

Given, any two finite sets A and B, then the Number of Elements in the union of sets A \& B is given by n(AB)=n(A)+n(B)n(AB)

If (AB)=φ, then n(AB)=n(A)+n(B)

Given A, B, and C are any finite sets, then the Number of Elements in the union of sets A, B \& C is given by

n(ABC)=n(A)+n(B)+n(C)n(AB)n(BC)n(AC)+n(ABC)
