If George is enclosing a square area with 80 meters of wire --
80/4 = 20 on each side
20 * 20 = 400 square meters in area.
80/4 = 20 on each side
20 * 20 = 400 square meters in area.

Recall that the perimeter of a square is equal to
P = 4*s
where s = length of one side
Therefore,
80 = 4*s
s = 80/4
s = 20 meters
We need to find the area. Recall that the area of a square is just
A = s^2
Substituting,
A = 20^2
A = 400 m^2
Hope this helps~ :3
