Aracely posted a survey question using one of her social network accounts. She grouped the results into three categories. The response results are represented by the Venn diagram shown above.

Group represents the respondents that answered "yes" to the survey question. Group represents the respondents that answered "no" to the survey question. And, the overlapping part of the diagram represents the respondents that answered "maybe" to the survey question.

What percentage of the respondents answered "maybe" to Aracely's survey question?

Answer

The overlapping portion of the Venn diagram represents the percentage of respondents that answered "maybe" to Aracely's survey question.

Since the diagram shows that exactly percent of the respondents answered "yes" or "no" to the question

.

The solution is the total percent population take away the percent that answered "yes" or "no":

The Venn diagram shown above has three categories that represent information about the Wildcats varsity baseball team.

Category represents the number of players on the team that are left-handed.
Category represents the numebr of players on the team that are pitchers.
And, the overlapping portion of the Venn diagram represents the number of players that are left-handed pitchers.

Given that and that there are players in the overlapping region of the diagram.

What fraction of the players are left-handed pitchers?

Answer

Since there are left-handed pitchers and total players that are either left-handed, pitchers or both the solution is:

The Venn diagram above represents the results from a recent survey given to middle school students. Category represents the amount of students that only like pizza. Category represents the amount of students that only chicken nuggets.

What percentage of students like both chicken nuggets and pizza?

Answer

Since we are asked to find the percent of students that like both chicken nuggets and pizza we need to first add the percentages together.

Thus we get,

.

The amount of students that like both pizza and chicken nuggets is going to be all of the students minus those that like only chicken nuggets and only pizza.

Question

If Jill likes blue, yellow, tan and green, and Doug likes red, tan, black and green, which Venn diagram is correct?

Answer

The middle portion of the diagram is the area that both circles share, so the color name that belongs in both circles should go in the middle area. Doug and Jill both like green and tan, so those colors should go in the middle. Only Jill likes blue and yellow, so these go on Jill's side. Only Doug likes red and black, so these go on Doug's side.

Question

The following Venn diagram depicts the number of students who like soccer, football, or both. How many students like soccer but not football?

Isee_question_6

Answer

A Venn diagram is used to demonstrate the number of people (or things) in particular categories. The regions of the circle that are overlapping indicate the number of individuals that belong to multiple groups. Therefore, based on this diagram, 12 students like soccer only, 16 like football only, and 8 like both.

Aracely posted a survey question using one of her social network accounts. She grouped the results into three categories. The response results are represented by the Venn diagram shown above.

Group represents the respondents that answered "yes" to the survey question. Group represents the respondents that answered "no" to the survey question. And, the overlapping part of the diagram represents the respondents that answered "maybe" to the survey question.

What percentage of the respondents answered "no" to Aracely's survey question?

Answer

The Venn diagram has three separate categories. Category represents the respondents that answered "yes" to the survey question, category represents the respondents that answered "no" and the overlapping portion of the diagram represents the respondents that answered "maybe" to the survey question.

Category .

Thus, of the respondents answered "no" to the survey question.

Group represents the respondents that answered "yes" to the survey question. Group represents the respondents that answered "no" to the survey question. And, the overlapping part of the diagram represents the respondents that answered "maybe" to the survey question.

What fraction represents the amount of respondents that answered "yes" to the survey question?

Answer

The Venn diagram shows that exactly percent of the survey respondents answered "yes" to the survey question.

Thus, to find the fraction equivalent we need to rewrite

From here we simplify the fraction.

The Venn diagram shown above has three categories that represent information about the Wildcats varsity baseball team.

Category represents the number of players on the team that are left-handed.
Category represents the numebr of players on the team that are pitchers.
And, the overlapping portion of the Venn diagram represents the number of players that are left-handed pitchers.

Given that and that there are players in the overlapping region of the diagram.

How many players are right-handed pitchers?

Answer

Since the question provides the information that there are left-handed pitchers and total pitchers, one can infer that the number of right-handed pitchers is equal to the difference between the total number of pitchers and the number of left-handed pitchers.

Thus, the solution is:

Category represents the number of players on the team that are left-handed.
Category represents the numebr of players on the team that are pitchers.
And, the overlapping portion of the Venn diagram represents the number of players that are left-handed pitchers.

Given that and that there are players in the overlapping region of the diagram.

What fraction of the players are only left-handed?

Answer

Since, there are left-handed players total and left-handed pitchers there must be players that are left-handed but do not pitch, because .

To find what fraction this represents we need to do:

In the above Venn diagram category represents the number of Kevin's friends that play the flute, while category represents the number of Kevin's friends that play the bass.

If of Kevin's friends only play the flute and of his friends only play the bass, then what fraction of Kevin's friends play both instruments?

Answer

To find the fraction of Kevin's friends that play both the bass and the flute, consider that the fraction represents all of Kevin's friends in this senario.

Thus, the solution can be found by adding those that only play flute with those that only play bass and subtracting that final answer from the fraqction that represents all of Kevin's friends:

In the above Venn diagram category represents the number of Kevin's friends that play the flute, while category represents the number of Kevin's friends that play the bass.

If of Kevin's friends only play the flute and of his friends only play the bass, then what percentage of Kevin's friends only only play the bass?

Answer

of Kevin's friends only play the bass.

Thus, to find the fractional equivalent we need to multiply the fraction by 100.

The solution becomes:
