Mr. Corry has been putting together puzzles during the Covid-19 pandemic. The latest one is a 1500-piece picture of a lake. Mr. Corry has broken the puzzle into three major sections: boat pieces, treeline pieces, and mountain pieces. Some of the pieces go to more than one part and some of them go to none of these parts
There are 635 boat pieces, 510 treeline pieces, and 601 mountain pieces, there are 110 pieces that are boat and treeline pieces only, and 235 pieces that are treeline and mountain pieces only. There are no boat/mountain only pieces, but there are some pieces that go to all three sections.
Make a Venn Diagram with three circles putting in all the information you can at this point. You may want to make some short notes also. All of the questions in this quiz deal with this same scenario which will be included in every question.
Select the way you feel below.
