Hello,
The average file can potentially compress at a 2:1 ratio but this may not be the case with software compression. It also depends on the type of files that you are backing up.
However you may note that when data is written to a DVD it is in a compressed format. Yes, it can be backed up to a dual layered DVD.
Hope this answers your questions. If you have further queries, please do revert.
