The Venn diagram below shows the dinner orders for a local restaurant.
This was submitted before, but no one answered. Thanks!
How many people did NOT order steak for dinner?
Steak, chicken & fish were order. In the Venn circles, the total that did not order steak was 56. There is the number 43 in the left lower corner inside the rectangle that the circles are in. Is this included in the total?
It sounds like your universe includes 43 people that did not order any of the meal choices. Ignore them in all calculations, unless you are asked a question like "what % of the diners ate chicken?" Then you'd have to figure out how many ate chicken and include everyone. That would be the sum of all the people in the circles plus the outsiders (43).
To determine the number of people who did not order steak for dinner, we need to understand the information provided in the Venn diagram.
First, let's analyze the Venn diagram:
- There are three circles representing three food choices: steak, chicken, and fish.
- The overlapping regions represent people who ordered combinations of two or more dishes.
From the information given, we know that the total number of people who did not order steak is 56. However, we need to clarify whether the number 43, which is in the left lower corner inside the rectangle containing the circles, is included in this total.
Unfortunately, without further clarification or additional information provided, it is unclear whether the number 43 is already included in the total of 56 people who did not order steak or if it represents a separate group.
To accurately answer the question, we need more information or clarification about the relationship between the number 43 and the total number of people who did not order steak.
