Venn Diagram with 2 sets

[Skelly4444]

I have a basic Venn diagram with just 2 overlapping circles for sets A and B respectively.

If I wish to just shade all of circles A and B, but not the part where they overlap or any of the surround, how do I write this mathematically?

Is it A n B n (AnB)'

I can't seem to find this example anywhere on the Internet, which is usually the case!

Any help would be appreciated

There are many different ways. How about [imath](A \cup B)-(A\cap B)[/imath]?

Thanks for that, would (AnB') U (BnA') also be a valid solution?

Yes, it would.

Ok thanks for clearing that up.

You wrote Is it A n B n (AnB)'?
Let A n B = S, so (AnB)' = S'
Now A n B n (AnB)' = S n S' = { } (the empty set).
Might you have meant A u B n (AnB)' ?
