To find out how many girls picked a sport other than football as their favorite sport, we need to look at the total number of girls and subtract the number of girls who chose football.

From the table:

  • Girls who chose baseball: 31
  • Girls who chose soccer: 62
  • Girls who chose football: 51

First, we calculate the total number of girls:

Total girls = Girls who chose baseball + Girls who chose soccer + Girls who chose football Total girls = 31 + 62 + 51 = 144

Now, let's find out how many girls picked a sport other than football:

Girls who picked sports other than football = Total girls - Girls who chose football Girls who picked sports other than football = 144 - 51 = 93

However, the answer choices appear to be:

  • 122
  • 144
  • 51
  • 193

Since 93 is not in the provided options, it seems there might have been an error in understanding the table or the survey results. Please recheck the data if available. Based on the results calculated, the number of girls who picked a sport other than football is indeed 93, which doesn't match any of the options provided.
