    1) "I suppose you could take the complements of each and say {A~, B~, C~}"... you can also say (AuBuC)' by demorgan

    2) its more like AB'C'

    3) I think its AB'C' u A'BC' u A'B'C

    4) this is a weird one, but I think this is simply A u B u C, which includes all possible events

    5) ABC'
