A string of decorative lights it’s 28 feet long. The first light is 16 inches from the plug. If the lights are spaced 4 inches apart. How many lights are in the string?

because the spacing is in inches, the total length of the string is 28 * 12 = 336 inches long

subtract the distance to the first light: 336 - 16 = 320 inches left

the spacing is 4 inches so now you would divide the length by the spacing to get the quantity of lights:

320 / 4 = 80 lights
