Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total number of bowlers

Add up the frequencies: $12 + 27+18 + 15+3=75$.

Step2: Analyze option A

Number of bowlers at least 35 years old: $18 + 15+3 = 36$. Percentage is $\frac{36}{75}\times100\%=48\%$.

Step3: Analyze option B

As calculated in Step 1, total number of bowlers is 75.

Step4: Analyze option C

Number of bowlers no less than 50 years old: $15 + 3=18$. Percentage is $\frac{18}{75}\times100\% = 24\%
eq25\%$.

Step5: Analyze option D

Number of bowlers younger than 50 years old: $12+27 + 18=57$.

Step6: Analyze option E

Percentage of bowlers between 20 - 34 years old: $\frac{27}{75}\times100\%=36\%$.
