The perimeter of a rectangle is founded by length plus length plus width plus width

So, we put that information into an expression

P=2l+2w

322=2(88)+2w

Simplify 2(88) which is 176

322=176+2w

Move 176 to the other side as a negative number

322-176=2w

146=2w

Divide both sides by two

146/2=2w/2

146/2 is 73

Therefore, the width of the fie,d is 73 yards
