If the earth were perfectly flat, it would always be 40 acres. However, the earth is round, necessitating what are called correction lines.

Any quarter section is comprised of 160 acres.
1 section = 640 acres. A quarter section = 160 acres.

1 section = 1 square mile = 640 acres1/4 x 1/4 = 1/161/16 x 640 = 40 acres
That would be a 1/16th quarter: 40 acres.
1 section = 640 acres(north HALF) of (southeast QUARTER) = (1/2) x (1/4) = 1/8th section = 640/8 = 80 acres
Any quarter section is comprised of 160 acres.
1 section = 640 acres. A quarter section = 160 acres.
You haven't said a 'quarter' of what. If it's a quarter section, then there are 160 acres in it.
