To convert yards to inches, we know that 1 yard is equal to 36 inches.
Width in inches = 5 yards * 36 inches/yard + 12 inches = 180 inches + 12 inches = 192 inches
Length in inches = 2 yards * 36 inches/yard = 72 inches
The ratio of the width to the length is 192 inches / 72 inches, which simplifies to 8/3.
Therefore, the ratio of the width to the length as a fraction in simplest form is 8/3.
