What is a wave packet?

The wavelength $\lambda$ of a photon and the de-Broglie wavelength of an electron have the same value. The ratio of the kinetic energy of the electron to the energy of a photon is ($m=$ mass of electron,$c=$ velocity of light,$h=$ Planck's constant).

The de Broglie wavelength of an electron in a metal at $27^{\circ}C$ is compared with the given mean distance between two electrons in the metal,which is $2 \times 10^{-10} \ m$. The ratio of the mean distance to the de Broglie wavelength is approximately:
