Question

please solve it urgentIn the exam ,16 percent passed in math ,55percent in english and 40 percent passed in both,find the percentage of the students who failed in both subjects.Using a venn diagram

Answer 1

Given that:

• 16% passed in Math.

,

• 55% passed in English.

,

• 40% passed in both subjects.

You can use that data to make a Ven Diagram. You can use two circles. One represents Math and the other one represents English:

The percentage of students who failed both subjects can be found as follows:

`100-(P(Math)+P(English)-P(Math\text{ }and\text{ }English))`

Where "P" means "probability of".

You can determine that:

`P(Math\text{ }and\text{ }English)=P(Math)+P(English)`
`100-(16\text{\%}+55\text{\%}-40\text{\%})=69\text{\%}`

Hence, the answer is:

`69\text{\%}`
