Depends the demand for those scans, and also if scanlations have been done by other groups on the net. If it has no demand, or is already covered by someone else it's all wasted effort.

It's like asking if there are more people speaking chinese out there or japanese. There's no true answer to it.

Well, depends on what mangas you have. And also if you have an actual team that does editing, co ordinating, QC, etc. You may actually need a translator or a proofer who knows his English well enough to ensure quality of the script.
