Answer:

The probability that Kyle will pick a girl who likes football is 12.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data provided is as follows:

                         Boys        Girls       Total

Basketball          10             8             18

 Football           25             7             32

  Soccer             9             19             28

 Baseball           18            22            40

   Total               62           56            118

Compute the probability that Kyle will pick a girl who likes football as follows:

[tex]P(F|G)=\frac{n(G\cap F)}{n(G)}[/tex]

            [tex]=\frac{7}{56}\\\\=0.125\\\\=12.5\%[/tex]

Thus, the probability that Kyle will pick a girl who likes football is 12.5%.
