Answers: To whom, We, their, me, hers.

Explanations:

1: We need the object pronoun whom (and the preposition to) because it is the object of this sentence that we are talking about ("she" is the subject).

2: "Us" is an object pronoun, but we need the subject pronoun to refer to "students" (the subject of the sentence).

3: Both "her" and "their" are possessive pronouns, but only "their" is right here since "girls" is plural.

4: The subject of this sentence is Blanca, and the verb (told) takes David and the speaker as objects, therefore, only the object pronoun "me" is correct.

5: The phrase "as good as" refers to "his painting," therefore we need a possessive pronoun (i.e., hers) to parallel "his painting".
