Answer:

Class B = 21 boys while Class A = 14

Class B has 7 more boys.

Answer:

Class B has more boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

Class A have 14 boys and 35 girls

49 / 7(the sum of 2 and 5) =7

Class A (2:5)

7x2 = 14. (boys)

7x5 = 35 (girls)

=49

Class B (3:4)

7x3 = 21 (boys)

7x4 = 28 (girls)

= 49

Therefore, class B had more boys than class A.
