160 divided by 9 is 17.78. 9 goes into 162 but that is even. The next number 9 goes into is 171 and that is odd so the. answer is 171.

ok so one way is to list the multiplues of 9 close to thtat
first use a caltulator to find out how much more we need
160/9=17.777777
that is 17.7777 nine's
so round up
18
18 is even
odd times even=even
18 must be odd
18+1=19
9 times 19=171
the answer is 171
