Answer:

He liked 40 songs and disliked 96.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this problem by setting up a ratio. Since the information provided is the total of songs he listened to, you must find the total of the ratio already provided (5:12). This total is 17, which wil be the denominator of the first ratio you set up. The numerator of that will be 5, which is the number he liked that is given in the problem. For the next ratio, X will be the numerator because it is the unknown number (how many songs he liked out of 136). The denominator will be 136, which is the total he listened to. To solve for x, you just need to multiply 5 by 136 and divide it by 12.
