Answer:

225 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

From what we have in the question, we have 60 ft of fencing

To maximize the area, we will need to have a square

For a square, the length of all sides are equal

Let us call one of the sides s

Thus, from the perimeter of the square;

4s = 60

s = 60/4

s = 15 ft

The area is thus, the product of the side length of the square

15 * 15 = 225 ft^2
