Solution

The correct option is E

2


Explanation for the correct option:

Given that n(A)=4,n(B)=3 andn(A×B×C)=24

The set A×B×C is the cartesian product of the sets A,B,C

The number of elements in the cartesian product are given as

nA×B×C=nA×nB×nC

Substituting the values we get

24=4×3×nC

nC=2

Thus the value of nC is 2.

Hence, option(E) is the correct answer.
