Answer:

8 1/3 inches

Explanation:

Length of the ribbon = 2 1/12 inches

Blue ribbon is 4 time as many inches as long as red

Length of the blue ribbon = 4 * 2 1/12

Length of the blue ribbon = 4 * 25/12

Length of the blue ribbon = 100/12

Length of the blue ribbon= 25/3

Length of the blue ribbon = 8 1/3 inches

Hence the blue ribbon is 8 1/3 inches long
