Answer: Larger percentage of boys pick piano

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, number of girls that pick piano = 12

Total number of girls = 8 + 12 = 20

∴ percentage of girls that pick piano = (number of girls that pick piano)/((total number of girls x 100

i.e )percentage of girls that pick pian = 12/20 x 100 = 60%

Similarly for boys, onumber ofboyls that pick piano =82

Total number of boys = 4 + 8 = 12

∴ percentage of boys that pick piano = (number of boys that pick piano)/(total number of boys) x 100

i.e percentage of boys that pick piano = 8/12 x 100 = 66.67%

Since 66.67% for boys is greater than 60% for girsl, then lLarger percentage of boys pick piano
