We are given with the price of concrete which is $98 per cubic yard. The budget is  $72.59. Hence the cubic yards that can be created is 72.59/98 equal to 0.74 cubic yards. The dimensions are  10 feet long and 3 inches high. 0.74 yards is equal to 20 cubic feet. 3 inches is equal to 0.25 feet. Hence the width is 20/10/0.25 or equal to 8 feet.
