The intersection of A and B is the part of the Venn diagram where the circles overlap. In set theory this is denoted using the symbol 'n'

so for 2 events A and B AnB is the intersection, (A and B)

For the intersection, which is the set composed of all elements that belong to both A and B you can use the symbol: A ∩ B
