For the backing, 3-3/4 yard should do it. You'd cut it in half and sew the two pieces together along a lengthwise (selvedge) edge, which would give you a piece about 67" x 80" . Your quilt top will be about 58" x 74" so that gives plenty of extra if you are quilting on a frame, and for shrinkage if pre-washing.
