Soccer ∪ Basketball = 80 + 70 − 50 = 100; neither = 150 − 100 = 50.

Submit

3) P(A ∪ B) = 0.86, P(A) = 0.55, P(B) = 0.48. Find P(A ∩ B).

Explanation

0.55 + 0.48 − x = 0.86 ⇒ x = 0.17.

Submit

4) In a group of 100 students, 60 study Math, 50 study Science, and 30 study both. How many study Math or Science?

Explanation

P(A∪B) = 60 + 50 − 30 = 80.

Submit

5) A survey found that 40 people like tea, 35 like coffee, and 15 like both. How many people like tea only?

7) A Venn diagram shows 100 students: 45 are in A, 55 in B, and 20 in A ∩ B. How many are in A only?

Explanation

A only = 45 − 20 = 25.

Submit

8) A Venn diagram shows 200 students: 100 take Biology, 120 take Chemistry, and 60 take both. How many take exactly one subject?

Explanation

Exactly one = (100 − 60) + (120 − 60) = 40 + 60 = 100.

Submit

9) In a survey, 35 people like A, 40 like B, and 20 like both. How many like B only?

Explanation

B only = 40 − 20 = 20.

Submit

10) P(A) = 0.52, P(B) = 0.47, P(A ∩ B) = 0.21. Find P(A ∪ B).

Explanation

0.52 + 0.47 − 0.21 = 0.78.
