An easy way to solve this is to convert 1/8 into a percentage then see from that point.
To turn 1/8 into a percentage, you must first get the decimal form of the fraction. In this case, 1/8 as a decimal is 0.125.
Now that we have the decimal form, we can divide the decimal over 100 (common numerical number to use when dividing) to get the percentage, which should be 12.5%.
Now, our new question is 'what's bigger, 80% or 12.5%?'
The answer is 80%, since it is larger than 12.5%.
The piece of ribbon would be 75 inches. The ribbon would be 75 inches because 1 foot would be 12 inches and you would multiply 12 by 6 to get 72. Then, 1/4 of a foot would be 3 inches because you could divide 12 and 4(the denominator you are dealing with) to get 3. Then, add 72 + 3 to get 75. Hope this helps!
