The Venn Diagram shows the different meals offered by two restaurants A and B.

If Restaurant A offers : {pasta, pizza, subs, chicken, hotdog, hamburger}

If Restaurant B offers: {steak, seafood, pasta, soup, chicken, salad}

C shows the meals offered by both restaurant A and B. What meals should appear in C?

a. Steak, Subs
b. Pasta, Chicken
c. Seafood, Chicken
d. Hotdog, hamburger

Answer : b

Explanation:
By examining the meals that are offered in each restaurant we realize that both restaurant A and B offer the Pasta and the Chicken dishes.

Area C will is the intersection of areas A and B and will display the dishes that are offered at restaurant A and B.
