So you need the width and the cost of fencing the back yard per your comment
Since the Area of a Rectangle = Length x Width
You have
1984 = 64 x Width
So
1984ft2/64ft = Width
31 ft = Width
Fencing should cover the Perimeter of the Rectangle = 2 Length + 2 Width
Your Perimeter is
2(64) + 2(31) = 128 + 62 = 190 ft
Since your cost is $11 per foot
190 ft x $11/ft = $2090 to fence the backyard
