To calculate the percentage of people who prefer cashew nuts, we first need to determine the total number of people in both samples who prefer cashew nuts.

From Sample 1, the number of people who prefer cashew nuts is 2 (62 and 63).
From Sample 2, the number of people who prefer cashew nuts is 1 (61).

Adding the two numbers together, we have a total of 3 people who prefer cashew nuts.

Now, to calculate the percentage, we divide the total number of people who prefer cashew nuts by the total number of people in both samples and multiply by 100.

Total number of people who prefer cashew nuts: 3
Total number of people in both samples: 10 (6 from Sample 1 + 4 from Sample 2)

Percentage of people who prefer cashew nuts: (3/10) * 100 = 30%

Therefore, the correct answer is 30%.
