Let’s go step by step through the Venn diagram to answer each question.
The left circle is for kids who like
bananas.
The right circle is for kids who like
mangos.
The overlapping middle part is for kids who like
both bananas and mangos.
From the diagram:
- Left circle only (bananas, not mangos): Diana, Nico, Susan → 3 people
- Middle (both): Tiara → 1 person
- Right circle only (mangos, not bananas): Ben, Paul, Francesca → 3 people
So total who like bananas = left circle + middle = 3 + 1 =
4
Total who like mangos = right circle + middle = 3 + 1 =
4
Now let’s answer each question:
---
1. How many people like bananas?
→ That includes everyone in the banana circle: Diana, Nico, Susan, and Tiara →
4
2. Who likes bananas and mangos?
→ Only the person in the overlap:
Tiara
3. Is Ben’s favorite fruit a banana?
→ Ben is in the mango-only circle → he does NOT like bananas →
No
4. Who likes mangos but not bananas?
→ People in the right circle only: Ben, Paul, Francesca →
Ben, Paul, Francesca
5. Who likes bananas but not mango?
→ People in the left circle only: Diana, Nico, Susan →
Diana, Nico, Susan
---
Final Answer:
1. 4
2. Tiara
3. No
4. Ben, Paul, Francesca
5. Diana, Nico, Susan
