Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

$A=\left{a,b,c,d\right}$

$B=\left{x,y\right}$
$A\times B=2\times 4=8$ Elements.
Total number of subsets of $A\times B$ having $3$ or more elements $=2^8=256$
$\Rightarrow 256-(1$ null set $+$ $8$ singleton set $+$ $^8e _2$having $2$ elements$)$
$=256-1-8-28$
$=219$
