Answer:

33 students.

Explanation:

There are between 24 and 40 students in a class.

The ratio of boys to girls is 4:7.

4×3:7×3

12:21

12+21=33

33 students in the class, which is between 24 and 40 students in a class.

4×2:7×2

8:14

8+14=22

22 is wrong because it has to be between 24 and 40 students in a class.

4×4:7×4

16:28

16+28=44

44 is wrong because it has to be between 24 and 40 students in a class.

4×1:7×1

4:7

4+7=11

11 is wrong because it has to be between 24 and 40 students in a class.
