The two enclosures will need three equal fences coming out from the wall and meeting another fence running parallel to the wall. If the fences coming out from the wall are x metres long the parallel fence will be (132 - 3x) metres long.
The area A = x(132 - 3x) = 132x - 3x^2
The derivative of A = zero when 132 - 6x = 0 which means the maximum area is when x = 22m
The maximum area = 22 x (132 - 3 x 22) = 1452 m^2
If you don’t know how to find derivatives then you could sketch the graph of y = x(132 - 3x).
This is an inverted parabola (hill) with x intercepts at 0 and 132/3 = 44.
The maximum point (top of the hill) is halfway between 0 and 44 I.e. 22m
Try any other value for x and the area will be smaller.

Answer:
Basically this is because division can be thought of as how many times does the divisor have to be multiplied in order to produce the dividend.
So you would need to multiply 1 8 times in order to produce the dividend,
Similarly, 10 goes into 80 8 times. The zeros are simply cancelled out in the division.
