9)
Boy Girl
Mayonnaise 12 14
Mustard 18 13
Plain 5 15

Answer 1

The answer is C

Explanation:

Boy likes mayonnaise:

12

(12 + 18 + 5)

=

12 /35

= 0.3429 ≈ 34%

Girl likes mayonnaise:

14

(14 + 13 + 15)

=

14 /42

= 0.3333 ≈ 33%

thus,

boys (34 of 100) > girls (33 of 100)

Answer 2

more boys than girls will choose mayonnaise over mustard and plain
