The correct answer is: 8
We have $\mathrm{A}=\{0,1,2\}$
$\mathrm{B}=\{2,3\}$
$\mathrm{C}=\{3,4\}$
$\mathrm{A} \cup \mathrm{B}=\{0,1,2,3\}$
$(\mathrm{A} \cup \mathrm{B}) \times \mathrm{C}=\{(0,3),(0,4),(1,3),(1,4) ;(2,3)$
$(2,4),(3,3) ;(3,4)\}$
$\therefore \mathrm{n}[(\mathrm{A} \cup \mathrm{B}) \times \mathrm{C}]=8$
