The correct answer is: equivalent to ~A

Given,

((A(BC))(AB))A

We know that, XY~XY,

Now using the above formula we get,

~(A(BC))(AB)A

~(~(A(BC))(AB))A

(A(BC))~(AB)A

Now to solve (A(BC))~(AB) let us assume a universal set 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, set A=1,2,3, set B=3,4,5 and set C=5,6,7

So, ABC will be 3 and ~(AB) will be 6,7,8

So, (A(BC))~(AB)=

FA

A

 Negation of statement=~A
