Asked by Joanna

an experimental farm has 3600 ft. of fencing to create a rectangular area that will be subdivided into 4 equal subregions, what is the largest total area that can be enclosed?
Answered by Steve
depends. Is the region a 2x2 grid, or a 1x4 grid? In the first case, it will be 600x600. In the 2nd case, it will be 900x360.
