Answer:

Barlow School has more boys. It has 178 more boys than Willow School.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{4 \times 873}{9} = \frac{3492}{9} = 388[/tex]

Barlow School has 388 boys.

[tex] \frac{630 \times 2}{3} = \frac{1260}{3} = 420[/tex]

There are 420 girls in Willow School. To find the number of boys, subtract the number of students with the number of girls.

630 - 420 = 210

Willow School has 210 boys

388 - 210 = 178

Barlow School has 178 more boys than Willow School
