Forum rules

Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,

Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.

All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

Questions regarding acreage

Wed Jun 01, 2005 2:10 am

I am attempting to find the number of square feet in one acrea and the distance in lenth (lineal feet) around one acrea. Can someone provide me this information or how to look it up? Thanks.

43560 ft^2.

Any rectangular shape where product of length and width meets those numbers for example,
10' x 4356', 198' x 220' (closest integers to being square), or 208.71' x 208.71' (the last is approximate)
