Answer:
33 students
Step-by-step explanation:
4+7 = 11
No of students has to be a multiple of 11.
Between 24 and 40, the only multiple of 11 is 33
There are 12 boys and 21 girls for a total of 33 students
Explanation:
Since there aren’t going to be fractions of people we can just count up using the whole numbers in the ratio and then check if the sum is between 24 and 40.
4:7→4+7=11<24 not enough
8:14→8+14=22<24 not enough
12:21→12+21=33
24<33<40 in the correct range!
