The linear equation for it is y= 1.8x+9
Divide total number of students by number of teachers:
Elmwood: 576 students / 24 teachers = 24 students per teacher.
Savory: 638 students / 29 teachers = 22 students per teacher.
Savory has the lowest students per teacher rate.
Try this way:
Note,
1. that 16/2=8 it means 10/2=5.
2. that 10*3=30, it means 16*3=48
Finally for whole table:
================
forks: 16 8 48
================
spoons: 10 5 30
================
Division is the inverse of the multiplication.
