Kimberly and her two best friends, Wendy and Paige, enjoy reading many kinds of books. Kimberly randomly picked 20 books from each friend's collection and recorded the total number of pages. She then created the following tables. Wendy's Books 442 172 268 112 85 343 396 227 183 240 76 95 303 144 445 344 181 161 430 224 Paige's Books 445 539 273 141 314 595 443 363 412 564 431 495 367 255 193 403 539 144 314 323 After looking over her collected data, Kimberly wrote down the following statements: All of Paige's books have more pages than Wendy's books. Most of Wendy's books have less than 300 pages. Few of Paige's books have more than 400 pages. Part A: Determine which statements are strongly supported by the data. Part B: If a statement is not strongly supported by the data, reword it so that it is strongly supported by the data. Explain how the reworded statement is more strongly supported by the data.

Part A:
- The statement "All of Paige's books have more pages than Wendy's books" is strongly supported by the data.
- The statement "Most of Wendy's books have less than 300 pages" is strongly supported by the data.
- The statement "Few of Paige's books have more than 400 pages" is not strongly supported by the data.

Part B:
- Reworded statement: "Many of Paige's books have more than 400 pages." This statement is more strongly supported by the data because when looking at Paige's collection, we can see that 7 out of the 20 books have more than 400 pages, which is more than a few. Therefore, it is more accurate to say that many of Paige's books have more than 400 pages based on the data provided.
