    Answer: 6 yards by 14 yards by 0.5 yard

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that the concrete will fill a space that is a right rectangular prism that is 18 feet wide, 42 feet long

    The cubic feet of the space =

    242 * 18 * 6/12 = 378 cubic ft

    Given that 1 foot = 12 inches and 1 yard = 3 feet

    6 yards by 14 yards by yard will give

    (6*3) * (14 * 3) * (0.5*3) = 378 cubic ft

    the dimensions of this space must be equal to the concrete dimensions space that is a right rectangular prism
