Answer:

  16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the width of a rectangular house that is 22 ft long and has a perimeter of 25 1/3 yards.

Perimeter

The perimeter formula is ...

  P = 2(L +W)

  25 1/3 yd = 2(L +22 ft)

  76 ft = 2(L +22 ft) . . . . . . . . . 1 yd = 3 ft

  38 ft = L +22 ft . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  16 ft = L . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 22 ft

The width of the house is 16 ft.
