Example Question #207 : Data Analysis
The above Venn diagram depicts the number of students that: only play at the Rec. Center after school, only play at the park after school, and the students that play at both locations after school.
How many students play at both the park and Rec. Center after school?
To solve this problem, locate the common part of this Venn diagram. Since each of the two outside portions of the Venn diagram represent students that only play at either the park or Rec. Center.
The students in the common area of the Venn diagram, play both at the park and at the Rec. Center.
Example Question #208 : Data Analysis
Using the Venn diagram above, what fraction of the respondents play at both the Rec. Center and the park. (Keep in mind that the two outside portions of the Venn diagram represent respondents that only play at one location or the other).
To solve this problem, locate the common part of this Venn diagram. Since each of the two outside portions of the Venn diagram represent students that only play at either the park or Rec. Center. The students in the common area of the Venn diagram belong to the group that plays at both the park and the Rec. Center.
This means that the total number of students (the denominator) must equal:
Making the correct answer.
Example Question #1 : How To Find The Common Part With A Venn Diagram
The Venn diagram shown above represents the number of students that: only took math during summer school, only took social studies during summer school, and the number of students that took both math and social studies during summer school.
How many students took both math and social studies?
The common portion of this Venn diagram is equal to , which depicts the number of students that took both math and social studies during summer school.
Example Question #1 : How To Find The Common Part With A Venn Diagram
What fraction of the above Venn diagram represents the number of students that took both math and social studies during summer school?
The common portion of this Venn diagram is equal to , which depicts the number of students that took both math and social studies during summer school.
The denominator of the fraction is equal to the total number of students: \
Thus,
Example Question #1 : How To Find The Common Part With A Venn Diagram
Using the Venn diagram above shows whether respondents only like Super Hero , only like Super Hero
, or if they like both Super Heroes. What percentage of respondents like both Super Heroes?

Example Question #1 : Venn Diagrams
What fraction represents the amount of respondents that use both Social Media site and Social Media site
?
The total number of survey respondents is equal to percent. Since the common part of the Venn diagram represents the respondents that use both social media sites, the solution is:
Example Question #4 : How To Find The Common Part With A Venn Diagram
The above Venn diagram shows the amount of survey respondents that only like tacos, only like tamales, and those that like both tacos and tamales.
What fraction of respondents like both tacos and tamales?
The total number of survey respondents is equal to percent, which equals
.
The total number of respondents that do not like both tacos and tamales: .
