    width is 27 yards and length is 123 yards

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Perimeter of a rectangle is 2 (L + W).

    If length is 96 more than width, then we know L = 96 + W

    Since we also know the perimeter, we can put them into an equation and solve for the length and width:

    2 (L + W) = P

    2 (96 + W + W) = 300

    96 + 2W = 150

    2W = 54

    W = 27

    Plug this back into L = 96 + W to find the length:

    L = 96 + W

    L = 96 + 27

    L = 123

    Therefore, the width is 27 yards and length is 123 yards.
