➢ Venn Diagram Related Problem (Notation based) :

Relations :
1. P(AB) = Probability of event A or B or both.

P(A) + P(B) - P (AB)

2. We can use these shortcuts (we don’t need to shade Venn Diagram).
a)P(AB) = 1 - P(AB)
b)P(AB) = 1 - P(AB)
c)P(AB) = 1 - P(AB)
3.P(A) = P(not A ) = 1 - P(A) or P(B) = P( not B ) = 1 - P(B)
