When you set up ratios and proportions like this, first write down in words how your setting up the ratios.

Are you doing
\frac{~~\text{number of students~~}}{\text{number of teachers}} or
\frac{\text{number of teachers}}{~~\text{number of students~~}}.

Once you do that, just stay consistent in the equation you set up.
