Answer 1

Answer: English is the preferred one.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you are dealing with percentage problems you just have to do a simple rule of three to answer the question, we have that our 100% is the total number of students:40, and 40% of them report that keyboarding is their favorite class, while 24 students say that English is their favorite class, now we just have to convert:

We clear the X and our function would look like this:

Now we know that 16 kids prefer keyboarding over the 24 that prefer English, since there are more kids that prefer English that is the favorite class.
