S 1 PROBABILITY Venn Diagrams and Terminology

Venn Diagrams and Terminology A school sixth form contains 150 students. 74 study mathematics, 56 study physics and 39 study economics 14 students study all three of these subjects, subjects 21 study mathematics & economics, 42 study mathematics and physics whilst 18 study physics and economics. Display this information using a Venn diagram. M P 28 25 7 E 14 14 10 4 48

A market researcher asked 100 adults which of the three newspapers A, B, C they read. The results showed that 30 read A, 26 read B, 21 read C, 5 read both A and B, 7 read both B and C, 6 read both C and A and 2 read all three. (a) Draw a Venn diagram to represent these data. (6) One of the adults is then selected at random. Find the probability that she reads (b) at least one of the newspapers, (2) (c) only A, (1) (d) only one of the newspapers, (2) (e) A given that she reads only one newspaper. (2)
