| Statement | The intersection of A∩B of elements that lie in both set A∩B={x:x∈A and x∈B} |
In set theory, the intersection of two sets A∩B, is the set containing all elements of B that also belong to ∩" between the terms; that is, in infix notation. For example:
ℤ∩ℕ=ℕ
A∩B∩C

Example of an intersection with sets
The intersection of two sets A∩B, is the set of all objects that are members of both the sets A∩B={x:x∈A and x∈B}.
That is, x is both an element of not in the intersection of the set of prime numbers {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, ...} and the set of odd numbers {1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, ...}, because 9 is not prime.
We say that A</math> intersects (meets) <math>B</math>|Intersects|To intersect|Meets|To meet}}"}},"i":0}}]}'>x that is an element of both x. Equivalently, A∩B is an x∈A∩B.
We say that A</math> and <math>B</math> are [[Disjoint sets|disjoint]]"}},"i":0}}]}'>A does not intersect B are disjoint if their intersection is empty, denoted {3,4} are disjoint, while the set of even numbers intersects the set of multiples of 3 at the multiples of 6.
The most general notion is the intersection of an arbitrary x is an element of the A of A.
