Okay, for the ratios, let's add all the numbers together and multiply it by n:
22n = 77
Divide:
n = 3.5
Now we multiply this variable 'n' with their respective numbers:
Ashley : 7 (3.5*2)
Jordan : 28 (3.5*8)
Nikki : 42 (3.5*12)

Ratio Given = 2 : 8 : 12
Find total parts:
Total parts = 2 + 8 + 12 = 22
Find 1 part:
22 parts = 77 candies
1 part = 77 ÷ 22 = 3.5
Find each of their parts:
1 part = 3.5
2 parts = 3.5 x 2 = 7
8 parts = 3.5 x 8 = 28
12 parts = 3.5 x 12 = 42
Answer: Ashley = 7 ; Jordan = 28 ; Nikki = 42
