Answer: The width is 11 yards

Explanation:

We know that to find the area of a rectangle you will have to multiply the length by the width.

So the area is 198 square yards and the length is 18 yards so we can set up an equation where 18 is being multiply by x and x is the width and make it equal 198.

18 * x = 198 solve for x to find the width

18x = 198

x= 11

The width in this case is 11 yards
