Complete two-way tables based on a Venn diagram
Joseph, Dimitri and Verinda were interested to know whether students who worked are more likely to own a smartphone so they each surveyed members of their class.

Based on the Venn diagrams they drew, complete a two-way table for each of their classes.
Joseph drew this Venn diagram after surveying his class.
Create and fill in a two-way table to accurately reflect the data in Joseph’s Venn diagram.
Dimitri drew this Venn diagram after surveying his class.

Verinda drew this Venn diagram after surveying his class.
Create and fill in a two-way table to accurately reflect the data in Verinda’s Venn diagram.
Survey your class and draw a Venn diagram similar to Joseph’s, Dimitri’s and Verinda’s diagrams. Use an online tool, Microsoft Word, or pen and paper. Additionally, construct a two-way table displaying the results of your survey.
