Answer:

Maximum possible width = 11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Jazmin wants to cut the paper into strips that are equal in width and are as wide as possible.

The first piece is 44 cm wide and

the second piece is 33 cm wide.

To find we need to find HCF of 44 & 33

44 = 2 * 2 * 11

33 = 3 * 11

only common factor = 11

Maximum possible width = 11 cm
