B Correct answer
Explanation

Total students = 40. Students who chose apple = 12. Probability = 12 / 40 = 3 / 10.

AI explanation

The probability formula is the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes. The number of students who chose apple juice is 12, and the total number of students is 40. This gives a probability of 12 divided by 40, which simplifies by dividing the numerator and denominator by 4 to equal 3/10.
