- The most liked genre is Comedy.
- The genre chosen by 22 students is Action.
- The number of students who picked Comedy is 35.
- 11 more students chose Romance over Drama.

Steps to Solve
- Identify the most liked genre
From the pie chart, the genre with the highest percentage is Comedy at 35%.
- Determine the genre chosen by 22 students
To find which genre corresponds to 22 students, calculate the percentages:
-
Each percentage represents a number of students; since there are 100 students, $22 \text{ students} = 22%$.
The genre that matches this percentage is Action at 22%.
- Calculate how many students picked Comedy
From the pie chart, Comedy is 35% of the students. The total number of students is 100: $$ \text{Number of students who picked Comedy} = 35% \times 100 = 35 \text{ students} $$
- Find the difference between students who chose Romance and Drama
From the pie chart:
- Romance: 27% of 100 students
- Drama: 16% of 100 students
Calculate the number of students for each: $$ \text{Students who chose Romance} = 27% \times 100 = 27 \text{ students} $$ $$ \text{Students who chose Drama} = 16% \times 100 = 16 \text{ students} $$
Now, find how many more chose Romance over Drama: $$ \text{Difference} = 27 - 16 = 11 \text{ students} $$
- Identify the least liked genre
By inspecting the pie chart, the least liked genre is Drama at 16%.
- The most liked genre is Comedy.
- The genre chosen by 22 students is Action.
- The number of students who picked Comedy is 35.
- 11 more students chose Romance over Drama.
- The least liked genre is Drama.
