Answer:

B. 28

Step-by-step explanation:

for every 4 boys there is 3 girls

so,

from 4 to 16 you multiply by 4,

4 x 4 = 16 (what you do to one you do to the other:

4 x 3 = 12

It's asking for the total amount

if there is 16 boys there is 12 girls with the ration of 16:12

add them up,

16 + 12 = 28 (That's your answer).
