Answer:

Oversimplification/hasty generalization

Step-by-step explanation:

This statement assumes that because Victoria is a girl and she enjoys dance class, then all girls must enjoy dance class.

A generalization is a statement that uses specific scenarios and applies it to a broad context. A hasty generalization applies generalization unreasonably and with flawed logic.

So, this is hasty generalization about all girls.
