Two balloons are hung on a string stretched between two walls as shown in the figure. Between these two balloons, 2 white balloons or 4 yellow balloons are to be hung such that the distance between the points where any two adjacent balloons are attached to the string is equal. The distance between the points where any two adjacent balloons are attached to the string is 18 cm more when white balloons are hung compared to when yellow balloons are hung. Accordingly, what is the distance in cm between the points where the two initially hung balloons are attached to the string? A) 135 B) 144 C) 153 D) 162 E) 171
