You are enclosing a garden with prefabricated fencing you salvaged from a landfill. You found 20 pieces of fence that are each 1 meter long. What is the maximum rectangular area you can enclose with these pieces of fence?
Please explain to me how to get the answer.
Thanks! :)

Your making a square. 4 sides. 20 pieces divides by 4 is 5 meters on each side. Multiply two sides to get area. 25 square meters is the answer.

5' by 5'
the closer the sides are to each other the higher the internal area is :)
