Answer:

42 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Jennie could mkae 7 quilts out of 21 yards of material:

We could establish a proportion to find the value of x yards of material required to make 14 quilts:

21 yards/7 quilts = x yards / 14 quilts

[tex]\frac{21}{7} = \frac{x}{14}[/tex] ⇒ Perform cross-multiplication:

7x = 21 × 14

7x = 294

Divide both sides by 7 to solve for x:

[tex]\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{294}{7}[/tex]

x = 42 yards

Therefore, Jennie needs 42 yards of material in order to make 14 quilts.
