Answer 3

`The track-and-field coach wants to know whether the students in the entire school prefer track races or field events.`
judging from this, we can knock off some of your choices, it specifically states `in the entire school` meaning that the coach would use the entire school (each grade and both male and female) to figure this out.

From that, what do you think the answer would be (positively, I know you already said your thoughts).

Answer 4

A?
