Distance is a scalar quantity.hence it has magnitude only and no direction.Total distance is given simply by the length of the actual path followed by the object. So we calculate the total distance traveled by patrice by simply taking the sum of the distances traveled by him in various direction.

Total distance = 4.0 blocks + 6.0 blocks + 4.0 blocks

Total distance = 14 blocks

Hence correct choice is 14.0 blocks
