Overlapping sets are those which have some elements in common.

For example, the set of positive multiples of 2 would be {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, ...}

the set of positive multiples of 3 would be {3, 6, 9, 12, 15, ...}

Their overlap (intersection) is the set of all positive multpiles of 6 ie {6, 12, 18, ...}
