Answer:

26 inches longer

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yd    2 ft   10 inches

-         3ft       8 inches

---------------------------------

we need to borrow from the yds

1 yd = 3ft

so 3ft + 3tf = 5ft


0 yd    5 ft   10 inches

-         3ft       8 inches

---------------------------------

          2ft        2in


now we need to change 2 ft in to inches

1 ft = 12 inches

2ft = 2*12 = 24 inches

2 ft  2 inches = 24 inches + 2 inches  = 26 inches

Answer:

26 in

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 1 yd + 2 ft + 10 in   Convert yards and feet to inches

l = 36 in + 24 in + 10 in

l = 70 in

=====

w = 3 ft + 8 in     Convert feet to inches

w = 36 in + 8 in

w = 44 in

=====

l – w = 70 – 44

l – w = 26 in

The rectangle is 26 in longer than it is wide.
