Answer:

10 yards

Explanation:

We know that to find the perimeter you have to multiply the length and width by 2 and add

We already know that the length is 14 yards

Multiply 14 by 2

14*2=28

Subtract 48 by 28 (the total of both the length and width multiplied by 2)

48-28=20

Divide 20 by 2

20/2=10

And your answer is 10 yards as the width

10+10+14+14=48 yards
