Solution

The correct option is D
$80 %$

Finding the percentage of students who opted for a picnic:-
Total number of students in a class $= 40$
A number of students opted to go for a picnic $=$ $32$
$%$ of students who opted for a picnic $= \frac{N u m b e r o f s t u d e n t s o p t e d t o g o f o r a p i c n i c}{T o t a l n u m b e r o f s t u d e n t s i n a c l a s s} \times 100$
$= \frac{32}{40} \times 100 %$
$= \frac{3200}{40} %$
$= \frac{320}{4} %$
$= 80 %$ $∵$ On dividing $320$ by $4$
Hence, $%$ of students who opted for a picnic $= 80 %$
