Cookies and Cream: 18%
Strawberry: 2%
Cookie Dough: 35%
Vanilla: 25%
Chocolate Chip: 20%

Answer 1

9 Times, hopes this helped

Answer 2

Answer: 9 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number students be x.

Then the number of students liked cookies and cream = 18% of x= 0.18 x

The number of strawberry = 2% of x = 0.02 x

Clearly, 0.18 x> 0.02 x

The number of times more students prefer cookies and cream than prefer strawberry =$=\frac{0.18x}{0.02x}=9$

Hence, The students prefer 9 times cookies and cream than prefer strawberry.
