The relative frequency of the percent of 7th graders who prefer mountains is given by:
$\frac{\text{Number of 7th graders who prefer mountains}}{\text{Total number of students}} \times 100\%$
Plugging in the values from the table, we get:
$\frac{40}{110} \times 100\% \approx \boxed{\textbf{(B)}\ 26.7\%}$
$\frac{\text{Number of 7th graders who prefer mountains}}{\text{Total number of students}} \times 100\%$
Plugging in the values from the table, we get:

We can find the relative frequencies of the different preferences.
The relative frequency of those who preferred the seacoast is $\dfrac{150}{300}=0.5=50\%$.
The relative frequency of those who preferred mountains is $\dfrac{150}{300}=0.5=50\%$.
The relative frequency of those who preferred the seacoast and were in 8th grade is $\dfrac{90}{200}=0.45=45\%$.
The relative frequency of those who preferred the seacoast and were in 7th grade is $\dfrac{60}{100}=0.6=60\%$.
The relative frequency of those who preferred mountains and were in 8th grade is $\dfrac{110}{200}=0.55=55\%$.
The relative frequency of those who preferred mountains and were in 7th grade is $\dfrac{40}{100}=0.4=40\%$.
Therefore, the correct statement is $\boxed{\textbf{(B)}\ 32\% \text{ of 7th-grade campers preferred the mountains.}}$
The relative frequency of those who preferred the seacoast is $\dfrac{150}{300}=0.5=50\%$.
The relative frequency of those who preferred mountains is $\dfrac{150}{300}=0.5=50\%$.
The relative frequency of those who preferred the seacoast and were in 8th grade is $\dfrac{90}{200}=0.45=45\%$.
The relative frequency of those who preferred the seacoast and were in 7th grade is $\dfrac{60}{100}=0.6=60\%$.
The relative frequency of those who preferred mountains and were in 8th grade is $\dfrac{110}{200}=0.55=55\%$.
The relative frequency of those who preferred mountains and were in 7th grade is $\dfrac{40}{100}=0.4=40\%$.
Therefore, the correct statement is $\boxed{\textbf{(B)}\ 32\% \text{ of 7th-grade campers preferred the mountains.}}$
