At kira's school, 5/9 of the 360 students bring their lunch. the other students buy lunch in the cafeteria. how many more students bring lunch from home than buy lunch?

The  extra number of students that bring food than those that buy lunch is; 40 students

We are told that 5/9 of the 360 students bring their launch.

Thus;

Number of students that bring their launch = 5/9 * 360 = 200

The remaining students buy lunch at the cafeteria = 360 - 200 = 160

Thus, extra number that bring food than those that buy lunch = 200 - 160 = 40 students
