Let A and B be two sets containing four and two elements respectively. Then the number of subsets of the set A×B, each having at least three elements is
  1. 510
  2. 219
  3. 256
  4. 275

Solution

Given nA=4

nB=2

Number of elements in nA × B=2×4=8

Number of subsets=28

Number of subsets having less than 3 elements =8C0+C81+C82

Number of subsets having at least 3 elements
=28-8C0-C81-C82

=256-1-8-28

=219
