Answer 1

To find the total number of students who participated in the survey, we can look at the total column provided in the table.

The total number of students for both grades is given as follows:

- Seventh Grade: 263
- Eighth Grade: 275

To find the total number of students, we can also confirm this by adding the total number of students who like rock and those who do not like rock:

Total = Like Rock + Do Not Like Rock
Total = A + B = (87 + 176) + (45 + 230) = 263 + 275 = 538

Thus, the total number of students who participated in the survey is:

**538**
