Let’s go step by step to solve this problem using the tally chart.

First, let’s understand how tally marks work:
- Each group of 5 is shown as four vertical lines with a diagonal line crossing them (like this: ~~||||~~).
- Any extra marks after that are just single vertical lines.

Now, let’s count each sport:

Football:
There are 3 groups of 5 → 3 × 5 = 15
(Already given in the table — good!)

Rugby:
There are 3 full groups of 5 → 3 × 5 = 15
Plus 3 extra marks → +3
Total = 15 + 3 = 18

Volleyball:
2 full groups of 5 → 2 × 5 = 10
Plus 3 extra marks → +3
Total = 10 + 3 = 13

Tennis:
4 full groups of 5 → 4 × 5 = 20
No extra marks → total = 20

Now we can fill in the data table for question 1:

| Football | Rugby | Volleyball | Tennis |
|----------|-------|------------|--------|
| 15 | 18 | 13 | 20 |

---

Question 2: How many kids like rugby the most?
→ We already counted: 18

---

Question 3: How many kids like football and tennis the most?
→ Add football (15) + tennis (20) = 35

---

Question 4: How many more kids liked tennis than rugby?
→ Tennis = 20, Rugby = 18
→ 20 - 18 = 2

---

Question 5: How many kids were asked about their favorite sport?
→ Add all together:
Football (15) + Rugby (18) + Volleyball (13) + Tennis (20)
= 15 + 18 = 33
33 + 13 = 46
46 + 20 = 66

---

Final Answer:
1) Rugby: 18, Volleyball: 13, Tennis: 20
2) 18
3) 35
4) 2
5) 66
