The number of students buying lunch is how many times the number of students packing lunch?
The number of students buying lunch is___________ times the number of students packing lunch. My anwser is 7 this is ratios and data btw

To find the number of students buying lunch compared to the number of students packing lunch, you can use the given ratio of 2 : 9.
This ratio means that out of every 11 students (2 + 9), 2 students pack lunch while 9 students buy lunch.
To calculate how many times the number of students buying lunch is compared to the number of students packing lunch, you need to divide the number of students buying lunch by the number of students packing lunch.
In this case, since there are 9 students buying lunch and 2 students packing lunch, you would divide 9 by 2.
Therefore, the number of students buying lunch is 4.5 times the number of students packing lunch, not 7.
Please double-check your calculations, and make sure you divide the correct numbers.
