<p>Set A and set B still have seven in common.</p>
<p>elliot - if they had said A and B only then I guess 5 is okay. But it said A and B - so 7.</p>
<p>Comic book one was the first problem for something righT??</p>
<p>Hmm... some people are getting 5 and others are getting 7. I really don't remember Venn diagrams... I learned about them in like 3rd grade...</p>
<p>ellicott34 but it didn't say 'only', it said the number of elements a and b share.</p>
<p>yeah so, 5, right?</p>
<p>what was the one with the tokens? was it six combinations?</p>
<p>nah it was 7 eliiot, you had to include the 2 in the middle.</p>
<p>I didn't get a lot of the questions you guys are referring to.</p>
<p>so it's 7..5 shared only by ab, and 2 shared by a b and c</p>
<p>Well, if there were 2 that all three shared, those 2 would already be included with a and b shared.</p>
<p>Yes, six token combinations is the correct answer.</p>
<p>that problem was seriously worded VERY stupidly. They should have put BETWEEN A and B instead of A TO B.
retarded</p>
<p>"what was the one with the tokens? was it six combinations?"</p>
<p>Was that the question where "A" was assigned a certain value if it was paired with another letter? If so, yeah.</p>
<p>no there is 2 shared by A and B and C, 5 is shared with A and B, so 5 is the answer.</p>
<p>I agree, the Set A&B one was difficult to conprehend.</p>
<p>I got 6 for the token problem as well</p>
<p>no, but i think i got 6 for that one too</p>
<p>Yeah, I got 6 for the tokens one as well. </p>
<p>10 + 5 + 1 + 1
5 + 5 + 5 + 1 + 1
5 + 5 + 7(1)
17(1)
10 + 7(1)
5 + 12(1)</p>
<p>can someone explain it to me then? they asked what is shared by a and B, (but they didn't say only? does that even matter) cause is 2 were shared by all, 5 by a and B, isn't your answer right there? it just means ther eare 3 things c doesn't share a+b</p>
<p>i'm just confused, not trying to be arrogant</p>
<p>wasn't it 5 combinations... because a combination means u must at least have two different numbers so you couldn't just add 1 seventeen times</p>
<p>i think ti was different combinations if you only has three physical coins, in which if you thought that you'd still get 6, somehow i did</p>
<p>no it said combination of tokens, meaning different variations, so the 17 1s count.</p>
