OBJECTIVES
a. Solve word problems involving sets with the use of Venn diagrams
b. Apply set operations to solve a variety of problems
c. Appreciate the use of Venn diagrams in connection to solving real life problems
We can use Venn Diagrams to solve problems that involve finding the
number of elements in certain subsets of two or more sets.
Three Circle Venn Diagrams can take a quite a bit of working out.
The steps to follow are generally these:
a. Get the information from the question that can go straight onto the
Venn Diagram and place it there.
b. Work through the remaining information, a bit at a time, to work out
each of the missing values.
c. Often we work from the center of the diagram outwards, when finding
these unknown values. (Work from the Inside Out).
d. Check that all the numbers on the final diagram add up to the
universal set.
Problem 1.

7. 𝑆 ∪ 𝐴 = ______________________________________________________________
8. 𝐼 ∩ 𝐴 = _______________________________________________________________
9. 𝐼 − 𝐴 = _______________________________________________________________
10. (𝑆 ∩ 𝐼) − 𝐴 = _______________________________________________________
11. (𝐼 ∪ 𝐴) − 𝑆 = _______________________________________________________
12. 𝐴 = __________________________________________________________________
13. 𝑆 ∩ 𝐼 ∩ 𝐴 = _________________________________________________________
