The pie chart shows results from a survey of 72 students, and the chart is split into equal sections. Each section represents a favorite subject, with the brown (dotted) section representing students who favor English.

The pie chart is divided into 6 equal parts, with one section representing English. Since there are 72 students surveyed and the chart is equally divided:

\[
\frac{72}{6} = 12
\]

Therefore, 12 students said their favorite subject was English.

3. What fraction of students chose Music as their favorite subject?
4. How many more students prefer English than Biology, assuming the pie chart stays divided into equal sections?
5. What percentage of students said English is their favorite subject?

**Tip:** A pie chart can visually represent proportions very effectively; each section's size directly corresponds to its portion of the total!
