VENN DIAGRAMS – 3 SETS (REAL WORLD)

Junior Cert Revision

Each of the students in sixth year in a particular school has WhatsApp (𝑊), Instagram (𝐼), or Snapchat (𝑆). The numbers who have each app are as follows:

36 students have WhatsApp40 students have Instagram54 students have Snapchat14 students have WhatsApp and Instagram24 students have Instagram and Snapchat𝑥 students have WhatsApp and Snapchat, but not Instagram8 students have all three apps.

Use this information to fill in the Venn diagram below, in terms of 𝑥.

A researcher has found old census data about Measles (𝑀), Chickenpox (𝐶),and Whooping cough (𝑊) among 12-year-old children. In a group of 100 children:31 had none of these diseases2 had all three diseases2 had Measles and Chickenpox, but not Whooping cough6 had Whooping cough and Chickenpox11 had at least two diseases18 had Measles40 had Chickenpox.

Use this data to fill in the Venn diagram.

A group of 100 students were surveyed to find out whether they drank tea (𝑇), coffee (𝐶), or a soft drink (𝐷) at any time in the previous week. These are the results:

24 had not drunk any of the three51 drank tea or coffee, but not a soft drink41 drank tea8 drank tea and a soft drink, but not coffee9 drank a soft drink and coffee20 drank at least two of the three4 drank all three.

Represent the above information on the Venn diagram.

2015 Sample JCHL Paper 1 – Question 3 (b)

A group of 100 students were asked if they had a presence on particular socialnetworking websites 𝐴, 𝐵 and 𝐶.24 students had a presence on 𝐴 only, 40 had a presence on 𝐵 and 50 had a presence on 𝐶.14 students had a presence on 𝐴 and 𝐵 but not on 𝐶.18 students had a presence on 𝐴 and 𝐶 but not on 𝐵.8 students had a presence on 𝐵 and 𝐶 but not on 𝐴.4 students stated that they did not have a presence on any of the websites.

Using 𝑥 to represent the number of students who had a presence on all three websites, construct a Venn diagram and solve for 𝑥.

We know that there are 50 in C so:

Hence, calculate the ratio of students with a presence on 𝐵 only to the students with a presence on 𝐶 only.
