Here are the numbers provided:
- Number of purple flowers: 669
- Number of white flowers: 221
The ratio of purple flowers to white flowers is calculated by dividing the number of purple flowers by the number of white flowers:
[tex]\[
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Number of purple flowers}}{\text{Number of white flowers}} = \frac{669}{221}
