At the time of George W.Bush's presidency, there have been 43 presidents of the United States. Draw a Venn diagram showing the following facts about where each served before assuming the presidency. How many presidents served as vice-president and in the Senate, but did not serve in a cabinet post?
How would you like us to help you with this assignment?
I have tried to do the Venn Diagram my answers were incorrect. How would i come up with the solution?
How can I solve this problem?
Here's a blank three circle Venn Diagram you can print.

Thank You, I will try this
You're welcome.
To answer this question, we will draw a Venn diagram to represent the different categories of where each president served before assuming the presidency.
Step 1: Create a Venn diagram with three overlapping circles. Label the circles as "Vice-President," "Senate," and "Cabinet Post." The overlapping parts will represent combinations of these positions.
Step 2: Analyze each category and place the presidents accordingly.
- Vice-President: There have been a total of 14 vice-presidents who later became president. Place the presidents who served as vice-president in the corresponding section of the Venn diagram.
- Senate: There have been a total of 17 presidents who served in the Senate before becoming the president. Place these presidents in the section of the Venn diagram labeled "Senate."
- Cabinet Post: There have been a total of 18 presidents who served in a cabinet post before becoming the president. However, we are looking for the presidents who did not serve in a cabinet post. Place the presidents who fit this criteria outside the "Cabinet Post" section of the Venn diagram.
Step 3: Count the number of presidents who served as vice-president and in the Senate, but did not serve in a cabinet post. This can be determined by looking at the overlapping region of the "Vice-President" and "Senate" circles, outside the "Cabinet Post" circle.
The resulting number of presidents who served as vice-president and in the Senate but did not serve in a cabinet post can be seen by counting the presidents in the overlapping region of the "Vice-President" and "Senate" circles outside the "Cabinet Post" circle.
Please note that the specific names of the presidents falling within this category would need to be researched further to provide an accurate count.
