    83 yards

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We are given;

    Perimeter of rectangle is 294 yards Width is 64 yards

    We are required to determine the length;

    we need to know how to get the perimeter of the rectangle; Perimeter = 2 (length + width)

    That is;

    P = 2 (L + W)

    P = 2L + 2W

    Rearranging the formula;

    2L = P - 2W

    Therefore;

    2L = 294 yards - 2 (64 yards)

    = 294 - 128

    = 166

    L = 166 : 2

    = 83 yards

    Thus, the length of the rectangle is 83 yards.
