In the venn diagram, consider u = {students in 10th grade at lee high school}.

the diagram shows the electives chosen by the students in the 10th grade.

how many students chose to participate in the painting class?

We have been given a Venn diagram in which U = {students in 10th grade at Lee High School}. We are asked to find how many students have chosen to participate in the painting class.

We  can see from our Venn diagram that 3 students are participating in chorus and painting. 2 students are participating in chorus, theater and painting. 4 students are participating in painting and theater.

To find total students who have chosen to participate in the painting class we will add all the students who are participating in other activities with painting.

Therefore, 17 students have chosen to participate in painting class.
