    A rectangular plot of land needs to be divided into two equal sections using 108 feet of fencing. To maximize the space in each subsection, the plot should be divided lengthwise down the middle with a fence that is 18 feet wide. This will create two subsections that are each 18 feet wide and 27 feet long, giving a maximum area of 486 square feet for each subsection.
