Answer: 16 yd

Explanation:

We know that the area of a rectangle is given by :-


\text{Area= Length * width}

Given: The area of rectangle =48 yd squared

The width of rectangle = 3 yd

Then , we have


48=\text{Length}*3\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Length}=(48)/(3)\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Length}=16\text{ yd}

Hence, the length of the rectangle = 16 yd.
