Answer: 3/5
============================================================
Explanation:
The set {1, 2}U{2, 6, 7, 9}U{5, 6, 7} simplifies to {1,2,5,6,7,9} after we combine everything and sort the values. We toss any duplicates.
Let B = {1,2,5,6,7,9}
There are 6 items in set B out of 10 items in set A.
The probability of landing in set B, if you pick something randomly from A, is 6/10 = 3/5
