The question does not provide context or description to indicate what the outer fences are. Therefore, the best approach is to choose the option that provides two values that make sense as measurements for outer fences. Among the given options, only C has two numbers that could reasonably represent the lengths of opposite sides of a rectangular outer fence. The other options either have too small or too large values, or have values that do not make sense as measurements for an outer fence.
