Answer 1

To find out how many boys chose soccer or football as their favorite sport, we need to add the number of boys who chose soccer and the number of boys who chose football.

From 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.
