Here's the Solution to this Question

It follows that |A|=\begin{cases}2,\ |B|\ne 3\\ 1,\ |B|=3\end{cases}. Suppose that |A|=1, then B=\{1,1,|B|\}=\{1,|B|\}, and we have a contradiction with |B|=3. Therefore, |A|=2, and thus |B|\ne 3. Taking into account that B=\{1,|A|,|B|\}=\{1,2,|B|\} and |B|<3, we conclude that |B|=2.

Consequently, A=\{3,2\} and B=\{1,2\}.
