$A$ = {3, 6, 9, 12} AND $B$ = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14} (M1)

Note: Award (M1) for listing all elements of sets $A$ and $B$ . May be seen in part (b). Condone the inclusion of 15 in set $A$ when awarding the (M1).

6, 12 (A1)(A1) (C3)

Note: Award (A1) for each correct element. Award (A1)(A0) if one additional value seen. Award (A0)(A0) if two or more additional values are seen.

[3 marks]

3, 9 (A1)(ft)(A1)(ft) (C2)

Note: Follow through from part (a) but only if their $A$ and $B$ are explicitly listed.
Award (A1)(ft) for each correct element. Award (A1)(A0) if one additional value seen. Award (A0)(A0) if two or more additional values are seen.
