California Standard:Statistics, Data Analysis and Probability 3.1Represent all possible outcomes for compound events in an organized way (e.g., tables, grids, tree diagrams) and express the theoretical probability of each outcome.

What it means for you:You’ll learn about Venn diagrams, which are useful in helping you to understand how different events relate to each other.

Key words:• Venn Diagram• outcome• event

It’s often tricky to figure out in your head how different events and outcomes are related.

A Venn diagram is a way to show how different events are related, and they can make probabilities easier to visualize.

A Venn Diagram is a Way to Represent Events

Lesson

6.2.5

One outcome will often match more than one event.

You can show situations where one or more outcomes match more than one event using a Venn diagram.

The next example should make the usefulness of a Venn diagram clearer.

The area where two circles overlap contains

all the outcomes that match both events.

All the possible outcomes are inside the rectangle.

The circles represent events. All the outcomes that match an event are inside that event’s circle.

Example 1

Lesson

6.2.5

Solution

Solution follows…

The following are two events for rolling a die once:Event A: Rolling an even numberEvent B: Rolling a number less than 4

Use a Venn diagram to show how many outcomes match both events.

The rectangle represents all possible outcomes.

This means rolling 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.

The blue circle represents event A, rolling an even number.

The red circle represents event B, rolling less than 4.Solution continues…

Lesson

Solution (continued)

The following are two events for rolling a die once:Event A: Rolling an even numberEvent B: Rolling a number less than 4

Use a Venn diagram to show how many outcomes match both events.

The outcome “rolling a 2” is in both circles. The circles have to overlap, so that 2 is in both at the same time.

There is 1 outcome that matches both event A and event B.

There is also 1 outcome (5) that matches neither event A nor event B.

1. Ace of clubs

2. King of hearts

3. Ace of spades

4. Three of spades

5. Sketch a Venn diagram showing the events below if an integer from 1 to 25 is picked at random.

Place the integers 1 to 25 in the correct areas of the Venn diagram.

Event A: the number picked is a multiple of 4Event B: the number picked is a multiple of 6

4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 are multiples of 4, so they go inside circle A. 6, 12, 18, and 24 are multiples of 6, so they go inside circle B. 12, and 24 are multiples of 4 and 6, so they go inside both circles. All the other values go outside the circles.

The Circles on a Venn Diagram Don’t Always Overlap

Lesson

6.2.5

Venn diagrams can show some other situations.

A B

AB

Some outcomes match A, but not B.

The circles don’t overlap at all if no outcomes match both event A and event B.

In this diagram, all the outcomes matching event B

also match event A.

Example 2

Lesson

6.2.5

Solution

Solution follows…

Draw a Venn diagram showing the following events for rolling one die:

Event A: Rolling an even numberEvent B: Rolling an odd number

Outcomes 2, 4, and 6 match event A.

Outcomes 1, 3, and 5 match event B.

No outcomes match both events, so the circles don’t overlap.

Solution

Solution follows…

Draw a Venn diagram showing the following events for rolling one die:

Event A: Rolling an odd numberEvent B: Rolling less than 6

Outcomes 1, 3, and 5 match event A.

Outcomes 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 match event B.

All the outcomes matching event A also match event B. The circle representing event A is completely inside the one for event B.

Outcome 6 does not match either event.

Round UpRound Up

Venn diagrams often don’t give enough information on their own to figure out probabilities, but they can still be useful.

In the next Lesson, you’ll see that when you combine events, a Venn diagram can help you to understand the situation better.
