To calculate the percentage of students in the sample who reported math as their favorite subject, we first need to determine the number of students in the sample who reported math as their favorite subject.
From the table, we see that there are 4 students who reported math as their favorite subject.
To calculate the percentage, we use the formula:
Percentage = (Number of students who reported math as their favorite subject / Total number of students in the sample) * 100
Plugging in the values:
Percentage = (4 / 21) * 100
Percentage = 0.190476 * 100
Percentage ≈ 19%
Therefore, approximately 19% of the students in the sample reported math as their favorite subject.
