Let us have a recap of what

What is a VENN DIAGRAM?

Differences Differences

Venn Diagram is a graphic organizer representing sets of ideas and the logical relationships between them. The sets are drawn as circles. An area of overlap between two circles (sets) contains elements that are common or similar to both sets. Circles that do not overlap represent the differences between the sets.

The method is named for British logician John Venn.
