    15 inches of ribbon is needed.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find how much ribbon is needed to go around the edge of the card, find the perimeter. The perimeter is the length around the card.

    Perimeter is found by P = 2l + 2w where w=3.5 and l=4.

    P = 2 (4) + 2 (3.5)

    P = 8 + 7

    P = 15 inches

    15 inches of ribbon is needed.
