    63 Lights

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First you can convert the feet to inches:

    The length of decorative lights is 264 inches

    You can then subtract 16 from 264

    264 - 16 = 248

    248/4 = 62

    Adding one extra light at the end of the string of decorative lights you can get 63 lights on the string
