Question

Choose the correct statement about the given Venn Diagram.


A total of 16 people were surveyed.

Everyone surveyed like popcorn and candy.

3 people surveyed like both popcorn and candy.

A total of 7 people like candy.

Answer 1

What Venn Diagram?

Answer 2

Because 3 people are in the intersection, 3 people liked popcorn and candy.

Answer 3

...and 7 people like candy....

Answer 4

Are we only allowed one correct answer?

Answer 5

is it the third one ?

Answer 6

Yes, so I think it would be the third one...
...and maybe the fourth one too? I'm not sure.

Answer 7

But if I had to choose one, it would be the third one.

Answer 8

yeah only answer

Answer 9

right, there are three people who fall right in the middle, so that would mean that they like both candy and popcorn

Answer 10

@Jamierox4ev3r that's a good way of explaining it.

Answer 11

however the reason why it is not everyone liked popcorn and candy is because there are two counts that are outside the Venn Diagram, and more than 7 people like candy because the three in the middle also like candy, so that would be 10

Answer 12

Does that make sense @shahbaaz786 ?

Answer 13

Sorry...I was confused about the middle.

Answer 14

Answer 15

no there is not? why do you think that @shahbaaz786 what is the other "right" choice?

Answer 16

ohh so t would be C

Answer 17

oh, the first choice! well that is not correct because 18 people were surveyed. Remember the two people on the outside?
