    Width: 85 yards

    Length: 95 yards

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Ok, so we need to make an equation for this problem. Let's call the width, w. We know that the length is 10 more than the width, so we can call it w + 10.

    180 = w + w + 10

    Now, i order to isolate the w's we need to subtract 10 from each side.

    170 = 2w

    Now, we just have to divide by 2 on both sides.

    W = 85

    So we now know that the width is 85 and because the length is 10 more, the length is 95 yds.
