Answer:
a) 12
b) 18
c) 37
d) 97
Step-by-step explanation:
Toward the middle of the harvesting season, peaches for canning come in three types, early, late, and extra late, depending on the expected date of ripening. During a certain week, the following data were recorded at a fruit delivery station:
34 trucks went out carrying early peaches ;
61 carried late peaches ;
50 carried extra late;
25 carried early and late;
30 carried late and extra late;
8 carried early and extra late;
6 carried all three;
9 carried only figs (no peaches at all) .
<u>To solve this problem, the best solution is to drawn a Venn Diagram, which is attached.</u>
(a) How many trucks carried only late variety peaches?
12
(b) How many carried only extra late?
18
(c) How many carried only one type of peach ?
7+12+18 = 37
(d) How many trucks (in all) went out during the week?
Sum of all the numbers on the Diagram:
7+2+6+19+12+24+18+9= 97
