Sagot :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of boys is 4/11

You need a number that is divisible by 11.

11 represents the number of students in the class. That was obtained by adding 4 and 7 together. So there are 4/11 boys and 7/11 girls.

You could try 33 which is between 24 and 40

4/11 * 33 = 12

There are twelve boys in the class.

7/11 * 33 = 21

There are 21 girls in the class.

21 + 12 = 33 which is exactly what you need.
