Answer 1

To find the total amount of people who like tacos, we need to add the number of 7th graders who like tacos to the number of 8th graders who like tacos.

From the table, we see:
- The number of 7th graders who like tacos is not explicitly given but can be calculated. The total number of 7th graders is 120, and they like Pizza (24) and Chicken, but since the total for tacos isn't given, we can use the totals.
- The number of 8th graders who like tacos is given as 35.

However, since the total number of students who like tacos is directly given as 71 in the totals row, we can conclude that:

**Total number of people who like tacos = 71.**

So the answer is **71.**
