Answer:

A) 60 girls B)80 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretend that the ratio is a fraction. If there are 4 boys for every 4 girls, than pretend that you add the 4 and the 3 together, thus giving you 7 as your denominator. Start with the girls, giving you a fraction of 3/7, multiply by 140, you get 60 as the number of girls. 140-60=80, giving you 80 boys.
