Answer:


\Large \boxed{\mathrm{(a) \ 51\% }} \\ \\ \Large \boxed{\mathrm{(b) \ 41\%}}

Explanation:

(a) To find the percentage of the students that are girls:


\displaystyle \sf (total \ number \ of \ girls)/(number \ of \ students )


\displaystyle \sf (30+72)/(200 )= (102)/(200 ) =51\%

(b) To find the percentage of students that prefer playing video games:


\displaystyle \sf (total \ number \ of \ students \ that \ prefer \ playing \ video \ games)/(number \ of \ students )


\displaystyle \sf (30+52)/(200 )=(82)/(200) = 41\%

Answer:

(a) 51%

(b) 41%

Explanation:

We can simplify this problem down by realizing that the amount of girls over 200 will get us our percentage as a decimal.

Looking at this table, we can see that
30+72=102 girls were asked. So,
102/200=0.51, and
0.51\cdot100=51.

We can also see that
30+52=82 people preferred video games, so
82/200=0.41, and
0.41\cdot100=41.

Hope this helped!
