Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

To determine the percentage of students who prefer to play cricket, we can analyze the given bar chart. Here's a step-by-step explanation:

1. The bar chart indicates the number of students who prefer different sports. According to the chart:
   • Cricket: 20 students
   • Hockey: 10 students
   • Table Tennis: 15 students
   • Khokho: 5 students
2. The total number of students considered is given as 50.
3. To find the percentage of students who prefer to play cricket, use the formula:
   \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of students who prefer Cricket}}{\text{Total number of students}} \right) \times 100 \]
4. Substitute the given values:
   \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{20}{50} \right) \times 100 = 40\% \]
5. Thus, the total percentage of students who prefer to play cricket is 40%.

Therefore, the correct answer is 40%.
