Answer 1

there----are----- seven girls in the class

Answer 2

There are seven girls in the class.

• In the given sentence, it speaks of more than one girl and is, thus, is a plural.
• The auxiliary verb that can be inserted here will also be plural.
• So, we will use 'are' here.
• The sentence means that the class has seven girls and will be written as - 'There are seven girls in the class.
• The verb 'is' could be used if the sentence talked of only one girl.
