Cookie Monster bought four packs of chocolate cookies and three packs of butter cookies for $17. Two packs of
butter cookies cost $6. All chocolate cookies cost the same and all butter cookies cost the same. What is the ratio of
the cost of a pack of chocolate cookies to the cost of a pack of butter cookies?

2:3

6 ÷ 2 = $3 (cost of 1 pack of butter cookies)

3 x 3 = 9 (cost of 3 packs of butter cookies)

17 - 9 = 8 (cost of 4 packs of chocolate cookies)

8 ÷ 4 = 2 (cost of one pack of chocolate cookies)
