Gina has 4 red ribbons, 6 times as many blue ribbons as green ribbons, and 1/4 as many green ribbons as red ribbons. How many ribbons does she have in all?
red = 4
green = 1/4 * 4 = 1
blue = 6*1 = 6
total: 4+1+6 = 11
To find out how many ribbons Gina has in total, we need to calculate the number of ribbons in each color and then add them up.
Let's start with the number of green ribbons. We know that Gina has 1/4 as many green ribbons as red ribbons. Since she has 4 red ribbons, the number of green ribbons would be 1/4 * 4 = 1 green ribbon.
Next, we can calculate the number of blue ribbons. We are given that Gina has 6 times as many blue ribbons as green ribbons. Since she has 1 green ribbon, the number of blue ribbons would be 6 * 1 = 6 blue ribbons.
Now we have the number of ribbons in each color: 4 red ribbons, 1 green ribbon, and 6 blue ribbons. To find the total number of ribbons, we just need to add them up: 4 + 1 + 6 = 11 ribbons.
Therefore, Gina has a total of 11 ribbons.
