Math help?

Martha has 70 feet of fencing to make a vegetalbe garden. Which design will give matha the largest garden? How do you know this?



A. 23x12

B. 24x11

C. 21x14

D. 22x13

Math help?
The largest garden means the largest area.

In order to find the area you multiply the two numbers and then you get the area:

A. 23x12=276

B. 24x11=264

C. 21x14=294

D. 22x13=286



So the answer would be C. 21x 14 (assuming the garden is a rectangle).
