Event E consists of:

{(1,2),(1,4),(1,6),(3,2),(3,4),(3,6),(5,2),(5,4),(5,6),\\\left\{ \left( 1,2\right), \left(1,4 \right),\left( 1,6\right) , \left(3,2 \right), \left( 3,4\right), \left( 3,6\right), \left( 5,2\right), \left(5,4 \right), \left( 5,6\right),\right.

(2,1),(4,1),(6,1),(2,3),(4,3),(6,3),(2,5),(4,5),(6,5)}\\ \left. \left(2,1\right), \left(4,1 \right),\left( 6,1\right) , \left(2,3 \right), \left( 4,3\right), \left( 6,3\right), \left( 2,5\right), \left(4,5 \right), \left( 6,5\right) \right\} \\

Event F consists of: {(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6)}\\\left\{ (1,1), (1,2), (1,3),(1,4), (1,5), (1,6) \right\} \\ Event G consists of:$ \left{(1,4),(4,1),(2,3),(3,2) \right} Then\
EF = \left{ (1,2),(1,4),(1,6)\right} E\cup F = \left{ (1,1)\left( 1,2\right), (1,3) \left(1,4 \right), (1,5)\left( 1,6\right) ,\right.\left. \left(3,2 \right), \left( 3,4\right), \left( 3,6\right), \left( 5,2\right), \left(5,4 \right), \left( 5,6\right) ,\right.\left. \left(2,1\right), \left(4,1 \right),\left( 6,1\right) , \left(2,3 \right), \left( 4,3\right), \left( 6,3\right), \left( 2,5\right), \left(4,5 \right), \left( 6,5\right) \right} FG = \left{(1,4) \right} EF^{c} = \left{ \left(3,2 \right), \left( 3,4\right), \left( 3,6\right), \left( 5,2\right), \left(5,4 \right), \left( 5,6\right),\right.\left. \left(2,1\right), \left(4,1 \right),\left( 6,1\right) , \left(2,3 \right), \left( 4,3\right), \left( 6,3\right), \left( 2,5\right), \left(4,5 \right), \left( 6,5\right) \right} EFG = \left{(1,4) \right} $
