Hello there.
Question: <span>Mr. Nicolas is putting up strings of blue and white lights for the holidays. The ratio of blue to white lights is 5 to 6. If he has 77 strings, how many strings are white lights?
Answer: 5:6
Add the numbers:
5 + 6 = 11
Divide this number by the total:
77/11 = 7
Multiply values by this number:
5 x 7 = 35
6 x 7 = 42
To check:
35 + 42 = 77.
Therefore your answer is 42.
