If the universal set is the set of positive even numbers less than 30 and:
$$A = \{4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28\}$$ $$B = \{6, 12, 18, 24, 28\}$$(a) Complete the Venn diagram with this information.
A number is chosen at random from the universal set.
(b) What is the probability that the number is in the set \(A \cap B\)?
2. | GCSE Higher |
(a) Complete the Venn diagram with the following information.
$$\mathscr{E}= \{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12\}$$ $$A = \{ \text{odd numbers}\}$$ $$B = \{ \text{factors of 24} \}$$(a) Complete the Venn diagram with this information.
A number is chosen at random from the universal set.
(b) What is the probability that the number is in the set \(A \cap B\)?
3. | GCSE Higher |
(a) Complete the Venn diagram to represent this information:
$$\mathscr{E} = \{-4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4\}$$ $$A = \{1,2,3,4\}$$ $$B = \{-4,-2,2,4\}$$
A number is chosen at random from the universal set \( \mathscr{E} \).
(b) What is the probability that the number is in the set \(A \cap B\)?
4. | GCSE Higher |
The Venn diagram represents a collection of 40 books on sale in an online store.
P represents the books available in paperback format.
D represents the books available in digital format.
(a) One book from the collection is picked at random. Work out the probability that the book is available in digital format.
(b) One of the books that is available in paperback format is picked at random. Work out the probability that this book is also available in digital format.
If you would like space on the right of the question to write out the solution try this Thinning Feature. It will collapse the text into the left half of your screen but large diagrams will remain unchanged.
