6. A survey was conducted with 700 clowns. They had two boxes to check:
- I work full time as a clown.
- I have made a child scream in fear before wetting his pants.
**Results:**
- 316 clowns checked box 1
- 285 clowns checked box 2
- 196 surveys were blank
Fill in the Venn Diagram.
---
**Venn Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram consists of two intersecting circles:
- One circle is labeled "Full Time."
- The other circle is labeled "Scare Child."
This indicates a need to determine the overlap (intersection) of clowns who both work full time and have scared a child, as well as those who only fit into one or none of the categories.
**Question:**
What percent of the clowns work full time and have scared a child into wetting their pants?
