Answer:

The length of the field is 84 yards

Explanation:

Since the area of a rectangle is width times the length, we can write a simple equation.

Let w be the width

Let l be the length

W*L = 4284

Since we know the width of the rectangle is 51 yards, we can plug it in.

51L = 4284

Dividing 51 on both sides,

L = 84
