Problem

Let A,B and C be three sets. Prove that if we take an intersection AB and intersect it with the set C, we will get the same set as if we took an intersection of A with BC. Essentially, prove that it does not matter where to put the brackets in (AB)C=A(BC). Draw a Venn diagram for the set ABC.
Prove the same for the union (AB)C=A(BC)=ABC.
