Answer:

School C is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets make the table

School       Total students surveyed  Students who like sandwich            

  A                      38                                             12

  B                      48                                              9

  C                      26                                             10

  D                      24                                              8

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lets find the percentage of students who like sandwiches.

School A : \(\frac{12}{38}\times100= 31.58\)%

School B : \(\frac{9}{48}\times100= 18.75\)%

School C : \(\frac{10}{26}\times100= 38.46\)%

School D : \(\frac{8}{24}\times100= 33.33\)%

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, comparing all values, we can see that school C has the highest percentage among all.

So, answer is school C.
