To find the percentage of sixth-graders who chose walking, we need to calculate the percentage of the total number of sixth-graders who chose walking.
The total number of sixth-graders who participated is 3 + 5 + 2 = 10.
The number of sixth-graders who chose walking is 3.
To find the percentage, we can use the formula:
percentage = (part/whole) x 100
Substituting in the values, we get:
percentage = (3/10) x 100
percentage = 30%
Therefore, the answer is A. 30%.
