Venn Diagrams: Counting with Two Sets — Easy Worksheet 2

Grade 6 · MathSheets    Name: ____________________   Date: __________

Picture a Venn diagram with two overlapping circles. Answer with a number.

How to solve

Draw two overlapping circles. The overlap holds the ones in both groups, so "only the first group" is the first circle minus the overlap. Everyone in at least one group = first circle + second circle - overlap. Neither = total - (at least one group).

Example

In a Venn diagram, 4 students only have a dog, 2 only have a cat, 4 do both, and 2 do neither. How many students are there in all?

Answer: 12
