      B 428 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 452 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 432 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 464 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Number of girls in class A = (7/16) Γ— 112 = 49
      Number of boys in class A = (9/16) Γ— 112 = 63
      Number of boys in class B = 162 Γ— 2 - 63 = 324 - 63 = 261
      Number of girls in class B = 114 Γ— 2 - 49 = 228 - 49 = 179
      Total number of students in class B = 261 + 179 = 440
