Answer 1

The correct option is B Statement 1 is true

Statement 2 is false
The boys in the group can be represented in fraction as $\frac{\text{Number of boys}}{\text{Total number of kids}}=\frac{4}{4+3}=\frac{4}{7}$

The ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls $=\frac{\text{Number of boys}}{\text{Number of girls}}=\frac{4}{3}$
