Answer: more than one

Step-by-step explanation:

it says boys, not boy's or boy. So it could be 2 all the way up to 200 boys.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

It could also be D, but it doesn't specify how many, so we can only assume how many specifically there is. Therefore the answer is "more than one"

Boys' with the apostrophe after the s tells us there is more than one boy.

If there was only one, it would be Boy's
