According to the given data we have the following:

area of a rectangle=180 square yards

lenght of the rectangle=18 yards

In order to calculate the width in yards of rectangle we would use the following formula:

area of a rectangle=lenght*width

So:

180 square yards=18 yards*width

width=180 square yards/18 yards

width=10 yards

Therefore, the width in yards of rectangle is 10 yards.
