Answer: There are 10 largest number of curtains she can make if she wants all the curtains to be exactly the same length.
There are 5 red fabrics and 11 gold fabrics that would be used for each curtain.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of yards of red fabric purchased by Jane = 50
Number of yards of gold fabric purchased by Jane = 110
We need to find the largest number of curtains she can make if she wants all the curtains to be exactly the same length.
For this we will find H.C.F. of 50 and 110.
Factors of 50 = 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50.
Factors of 110 = 1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 22, 55, 110.
So, Highest common factor of 50 and 110 is 10.
So, there are 10 largest number of curtains she can make if she wants all the curtains to be exactly the same length.
Number of yards of red fabric is given by
Number of yards of gold fabric is given by
Hence, there are 5 red fabrics and 11 gold fabrics that would be used for each curtain.
