Venn diagrams Flashcards
Example 1 - (1, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15)
A: Factors of 30
B: Factors of 16
Complete the venn diagram
When drawn: AB section: 1 A section: 6, 10, 15 B section: 4, 8 Outside: 11, 13
Example 2 -
Below is a venn diagram to show the number of pupils in a class that own certain pets
a. How many pupils own both a cat and a dog?
b. How many pupils own a cat?
c. How many pupils own a dog or a cat?
d. How many pupils don’t own a dog?
Diagram: Dog: 5 Cat: 8 Both: 3 Outside: 4
a. 3
b. 11
c. 16
d. 12
Example 3 - The Venn diagram shows the number of Y10 pupils in class who either own a Nintendo switch (N) or Xbox (X)
N: 3
X: 10
Both: 4
Outside: 8
Calculate: P(N) P(N n X) P(N u X) P(x') P(N' n X') P(N U X') P(N u X')'
P(N)=7/25 P(N n X)=4/25 P(N u X)=17/25 P(X')=11/25 P(N' n X')=8/25 P(N u X')=15/25 P(N u X')'=10/25
Example 4 - In a class some students like cheese sandwiches (C) and ham sandwiches (H)
3 people like cheese and ham sandwiches
15 people like cheese sandwiches altogether
19 people like just ham sandwiches
There are 40 people altogether
Draw a venn diagram for the following information
C: 12
H: 19
Both: 3
Outside: 6
Example 5 -
Draw a venn diagram for the following information
14 people have a dog (D)
12 people have a cat (C)
5 people have neither
There are 25 people altogether
D: 8
C: 6
Both: 6
Outside: 5
Note: 14 people have a dog, 12 people have a cat, and 5 people have neither. This adds up to 31, when there should only be 25 people altogether. 31-25=6. 6 people must have both a cat and a dog, so I put 6 in the middle section and minus 6 off of 12 and 14
