When they say "20 yard" they mean its volume is 20 cubic yards.
Volume = length x height x width
so...
In this case you might assume a height of 2 yards and a width of 3 yards, that would give you the equation.
20 = length x 2 x 3
or...
length = 20/6 = 3.33 yard
(By the way you can use google as a calculator. If you type
20/6 =
in the search window it will give you a direct answer)
3.33 Yards seems a little short for a length, I may have over estimated the height and width. Play around with the numbers.
Try a height of 1.5 yards and a width of 2.5 yards then
20 = length x 1.5 x 2.5 or length = 20/(1.5 x 2.5) =5.33 yards. That seems a little better.

To determine how many 20 x 20 napkins can be made from 1 yard of fabric, first convert 1 yard to inches, which is 36 inches. Each napkin is 20 inches square, so you can fit 1 napkin along one side of the yard and 1 along the other side, resulting in a total of 1 napkin per yard. Therefore, you can make 1 napkin from 1 yard of fabric.
