Answer 1

To find out how many boys chose soccer or football as their favorite sport, we can look at the numbers provided in the table for the boys.

According to the table:
- Boys who chose soccer: 54
- Boys who chose football: 71

Now, we add these two numbers together:

54 (soccer) + 71 (football) = 125

Therefore, the number of boys who chose soccer or football as their favorite sport is **125**.
