To determine which percentage is higher, we need to calculate the percentage of boys who prefer green and the percentage of girls who prefer red.

Percentage of boys who prefer green:

Total number of boys = 2 + 4 + 4 + 5 = 15

Number of boys who prefer green = 5

Percentage of boys who prefer green = (5/15) x 100% = 33.33% (rounded to the nearest whole number, this is 33%)

Percentage of girls who prefer red:

Total number of girls = 4 + 3 + 1 + 3 = 11

Number of girls who prefer red = 4

Percentage of girls who prefer red = (4/11) x 100% = 36.36% (rounded to the nearest whole number, this is 36%)

Therefore, the percentage of girls who prefer red (36%) is higher than the percentage of boys who prefer green (33%).

The answer is B. At 36%, the percentage of girls who prefer red is higher.
