Answer 1

A larger percentage of 10th graders preferred snow.

Answer 2

Answer:

10th graders prefered snow then 8th graders did.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey I hope I will be able to help!

To find out the percentage we need to divide the fractions-

28 divided by 50 = 0.56 and in percentage form its 56%

42 divided by 58 = approximately 0.72 which is 72%

56% < 72%

72% is obviously greater so 10th graders prefer snow more than 8th graders do.
