Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate percentage of students studying flower - arranging

The percentage of students studying flower - arranging in the sample is $\frac{12}{50}\times100% = 24%$, not $40%$.

Step2: Analyze the statement about tea - ceremony students

The sample has 14 students studying tea - ceremony out of 50. But we cannot say exactly that approximately 14 students at the whole school study tea - ceremony just based on a sample of 50 students. A sample is used to estimate population parameters, not to give an exact number for the whole population.
