So the last few blanks are between cyclic and nocyclic but im not sure how to calulate for the problem

Noncyclic photosynthetic electron transport leads to the translocation of 3 H* per e and cyclic photosynthetic electron transport leads to the translocation of 2 H* per e.
Assuming that CF,CF,ATP synthase yields 6 ATP per 14 H*, calculate the photosynthetic efficiency of ATP synthesis.
Noncyclic efficiency =
quanta/ATP
Cyclic efficiency =
| quanta/ATP
What is the relative photosynthetic efficiency of ATP synthesis for the two types of electron transport?
electron transport is
times more efficient than
