Answer 1

The correct option is A Soccer: $5;$ Tennis: $2;$ Football: $12;$ Baseball: $10;$ Basketball: $9$

Say: On our screen, we have a tally chart showing the number of people in each game.

Steps:
Let us count them one by one.
Soccer: $4$ lines and a cross off, so it is a complete group or a set of $5.$
Tennis: $2$ lines $=2$
Football: $2$ sets of $5$ and $2$ more lines $=5+5+2=12$
Baseball: $2$ sets of $5=5+5=10$
Basketball: $1$ set of $5$ and $4$ more lines $=5+4=9$
Hence, Option A is the answer.
