In this post we’re looking at a venn diagram. These types of questions tend to be fairly straightforward … or much more difficult … and, unfortunately, there isn’t anything in the middle ground. I must admit it took me a little while to understand these, and it’s only by constantly reading that I was able to work through the questions.

A Venn diagram usually represents information and you need to be aware of a number of terms:
P – probability
∪ – union
∩ – intersection (usually called ‘and’)
as well as a ” ‘ ” sign that means ‘not.’
