Answer:

E. 200 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 2 boys for every 3 girls

so if we multiply the amount of girls by 100 to get 300 girls

then we need to multiply the amount of boys by 100 too because what you do to one side you have to do to the other

2*100= 200

200 boys for 300 girls can be simplified to the ratio 2:3 by dividing by 100 so we know our answer is correct

hope this helps babe <3
