Solution

Option C is the correct answer.

When a set A has m elements and another set B has n elements, set A always has at least one more element than set B. However, it is possible for all elements of set B to be contained in set A. In other words, when set B is a proper subset of set A, the elements in $(A \cap B)$ can be maximized and $(A \cap B) = n$.
