What is the length and width of 20 acres of land?

Answer 1

Whatever you want it to be, as long as the length times the width equals 43,560 square feet. If you want it to be a square, then each side should be approximately 208.71 feet long. If you want a really long but narrow rectangle, you could make it one foot wide and 43,560 feet long. If you wanted it to be a circle, then the diameter of the circle should be about 235.5 feet. Take your pick or use something in between.

Answer 2

Any length and width you want as long as it totals up to 871,200 square feet. This can be anywhere from a perfect square of about 933.4 feet on each side down to a very long strip of one foot wide and 871,200 feet (165 miles) long. It will all be 20 acres as long as the square footage matches up.

In the US survey system, one square mile is broken up into 640 acres. So 20 acres would be 1/4 mile by 1/8 mile. This is a rectangle measuring 1,320 feet by 660 feet.

Answer 3

To find the length and width of 20 acres of land, we first need to know the shape of the land. If the land is a perfect square, we can calculate the length and width by taking the square root of the total area (20 acres). The square root of 20 acres is approximately 4.47 acres. Therefore, the length and width of 20 acres of land would be 4.47 acres each.

Answer 4

An acre can be any width, even a circular or odd shape, so long as the area totals up to 43,560 square feet.

Answer 5
