Simple it says you use 33 drops of yellow originally and 44 drops of blue it appears that each drops are 11 drops lesser (from blue to yellow). Therefore, add 11 to 1212 and you get your answer.
8 + 4 = 12
1/3 + 2/3 = 1
12 + 1 = 13 cups of nuts.
Let's assume the frequency of sound be f and wave length is w.
Given that, the frequency of sound varies inversely as the wavelength.
So, we can set up an equation as following:
f*w = k Where k= constant of variation.
Other information is, the frequency of a musical note is 276 cycles per second when the wavelength is 1.2m.
So, next step is to plug in f = 276 and w = 1.2 in the above equation to get the value of k.
276 * 1.2 = k
So, k = 331.2
Next step is to plug in k = 331.2 in the above equation. So,
f * w = 331.2
Now we need to find the wave length : w when frequency : f = 600.
Therefore,
600 * w = 331.2

So, w = 0.552
Hence, the wave length is 0.552 m.
Hope this helps you!.

This is because 
And 
For this reason, 
Positive indices mean we have to multiply the same number twice or thrice based on the value of the index. On the other hand, negative indices mean we have to divide by the same number twice or thrice based on the value of the index.
