Answer:
180
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, the length of green ribbon be 'x' cm
Given,
Length of blue ribbon 3 times the length of green ribbon.
Length of blue ribbon = 3x cm
Also given,
Length of red ribbon is 2 times the length of blue ribbon.
Length of red ribbon = 2* 3x
= 6x cm
Also given,
Total length of 3 pieces of ribbon is 600 cm
Length of (blue + green + red) = 600 cm
3x + x + 6x = 600cm
10x = 600
x = 600/10
x = 60 cm
Length of blue ribbon = 3x = 3*60
= 180 cm
