possibly mistake in question phrasing.

question says "... sets A,B and C ..."???

unless I am mistaken, when C is written as superscript, it should represent the symbol for "complement of set" (equivalent to using single quotation mark).

alternative solution in other direction (with similar reasoning) ...

LHS
= (AUB) ∩ (A∩B)'
= (AUB) ∩ (A'UB')
= (A∩A') U (A∩B') U (B∩A') U (B∩B')
= ∅ U (A∩B') U (B∩A') U ∅
= (A∩B') U (B∩A')
= (A\B) U (B\A)
= RHS
