To find out how many eighth graders took the survey, we can add the preferences for pizza and tacos for the 8th grade.

From the table:

  • 8th Grade Pizza: 54
  • 8th Grade Tacos: 81

Now, we add these two values together:

54 (Pizza) + 81 (Tacos) = 135

So, the total number of eighth graders who took the survey is 135.
