You have 60 ft of fence to make a rectangular vegetable garden alongside the wall of your house. The wall of the house bounds one side of the vegetable garden. What is the largest possible area of the vegetable garden?

400 ft²

The maximum area of a rectangle results from it being a square. The rectangle (or square) must have 4 equal sides in order to maximize area. But in this case, one side is a wall. That means that the remaining three sides will be = 60 / 3 = 20 feet long. You formed an square that is 20 ft x 20 ft = 400 ft²

then divide 40 by 8

then you will get 3/5.
