Hi there, square miles and miles are not really the same thing. Miles are a measure of distance while square miles are a measure of area.

To answer your question though, for any rectangular piece of land, you can measure the distance/length of two sides in miles (start from any one corner) then multiply these two numbers together to get the total square miles in area.

So: 20 miles x 30 miles = 600 square miles

Or: 10 miles x 60 miles = 600 square miles

etc...

Regards, Peter.

Miles measures distance. Square miles measures area. Therefore, you can not compare the two. It is like comparing feet and cups.
