the first area and the first number, the second area and the second number and the third are and the third number. For example, let's assume we have the following areas {65, 15, 20}. The absolute difference between these two sets equals {abs(44-65), abs(39-15), abs(17-20)} == {21, 24, 3}. The sum-total of all these absolute differences is your fitness, i.e. 21+24+3 = 48. This number has to go to zero.
If we enter the results you just got, then the absolute differences look like this: {abs(44-44), abs(39-17), abs(17-39)} == {0, 22, 22}, which results in a fitness of 44. Only an exact match will result in a fitness of zero.
