You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi,
1 yard = 3 feet
So the perimeter is 25 1/3 yards or 76 feet.
Length 22 feet.
As you know the rectangle has 4 sides, with opposite sides being equal. Perimeter is the sum of all the sides, i.e. 2 equal length sides and 2 equal width sides.
Since I have converted the perimeter also into feet, you should be able to solve it now.
Helps?
