Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio of blue jays to robin's was 6 to 7 then if there were 84 robins how many blue jays were there.

6 to 7 can also be express as 6/7

Thus, we can set up a proportion

6/7 = x/84

Now, we have to solve for x

x = 72

Hence, if there were 84 robin there would be 72 blue jays.
