Answer:

Soccer = 120

Tennis = 220

Explanation:

The total number of students enrolling for soccer and tennis classes is, 340.

The ratio number of students enrolling for soccer and tennis classes is, 6:11.

Then,

6x + 11x = 340

17x = 340

x = 20

The number of students enrolled for soccer class is, 6x = 6 × 20 = 120.

The number of students enrolled for tennis class is, 11x = 11 × 20 = 120.
