To find the percentage of the class with SAT Math scores between 200 and 400, we need to add up the frequencies in that range and divide by the total number of students in the class. From the table, we see that the frequency for that range is 52. The total frequency for all scores is 139, so the percentage of the class with scores between 200 and 400 is (52/139)*100, which is approximately 37.4%. Therefore, the answer is choice B.
