How big is an acre, really?
About 4,047 square metres, or roughly 70 by 58 metres if it were square — though it rarely is. The traditional definition was one chain by one furlong, the strip a team of oxen could plough in a day, which is why it is a long thin shape rather than a round number.
How many acres in a hectare?
A hectare is about 2.47 acres. The hectare is the tidier unit: it is exactly 10,000 square metres, or a square 100 metres on each side. Most of the world quotes land in hectares and only the English-speaking countries still lean on the acre.
Why isn't a square foot 12 square inches?
