Respuesta :

From the given figure

The number of students who prefer Chocolate is 7

The number of students who prefer Vanilla is 11

The number of students who prefer Strawberries is 3

The number of students who prefer Cookies and cream is 4

Then the total number of students in the survey is

[tex]\begin{gathered} N=7+11+3+4 \\ N=25 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since the probability = faverate/total, then

The probabilities of each item are

[tex]\begin{gathered} P\left(Ch\right)=\frac{7}{25} \\ \\ P\left(V\right)=\frac{11}{25} \\ \\ P\left(S\right)=\frac{3}{25} \\ \\ P\lparen C\text{ \&C\rparen=}\frac{4}{25} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Let us find the correct answer

A.

Chocolate and cream has 4 students which are not the least popular flavor

The least popular flavor is the strawberry

Answer A is wrong

B.

The number of students who prefer strawberry = 3

The number of students who prefer cookies and cream = 4

3 is not half 4, then

Answer B is wrong

C.

The number of students who prefer chocolate = 7

The number of students who prefer strawberry and who prefer cookies and cream = 3 + 4 = 7

Then they are the same

Answer C is correct

D.

The number of students who prefer vanilla = 11

The number of students who prefer either chocolate or strawberry = 7 + 3 = 10

11 is not less than 10, then

Answer D is wrong

The correct answer is C
