    Answer: 1) 40%

    2) 57.14%

    3) 16%

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1). Total students in 8th grade is = 8+2+12+3+5 = 30

    Number of students who said football is their favorite sport = 12

    Therefore % of these students = (Number of students who play football/Total students) * 100 = (12/30) * 100 = 1200/30 = 40%

    2). In 8th grade number of students who said baseball is their favorite sport = 8

    In 9th grade number of students who said baseball is their favorite sport = 6

    Total students having favorite sport was baseball = 8+6=14

    Therefore % of students in grade 8 out of total students = (8/14) * 100 = 800/14 = 57.14%

    3). In 9th grade total number of students = 6+3+10+2+4 = 25

    Students who said soccer is their favorite sport = 4

    Therefore % of these students = (4/25) * 100 = 16%
