1 square mile = 640 acres
(1.2 x 3.9) x (640) = 2,995.2 acres

It is impossible to tell you unless you give us information about the shape and relative dimensions of the sides of the 14 acres.
How many miles of perimeter fencing in 725 acres?
It depends upon the shape of the area of 725 acres; the minimum length is a circle with an area of 725 acres: 1 acre = 1/640 square mile → 725 acre = 725 ÷ 640 sq miles = 725/640 miles² Area circle = π × radius² → radius = √(Area/π) Circumference = 2 × π × radius = 2 × π × √(Area/π) = √(4 × π × Area) = √(4 × π × 725/640 miles²) = √(145π/32) miles ≈ 3.773 miles You will require at least approx 3.773 miles of fencing to enclose an area of 725 acres. ie the fencing will be greater than or equal to approx 3.773 miles - there is no upper limit to the amount of fencing you will need. -------------------------------------------------------------------- An acre was define as the amount of and an ox could plough in a day and is the area of a furrow long (a furlong = 1/8 mile) by a chain (= 1/80 mile). If you scale this rectangle up to 725 acres, it will be √725 larger in each direction, ie it will be a rectangle (√725)/8 miles by (√725)/80 miles →perimeter = 2 × ((√725)/8 + (√725)/80) miles = (2 × √725)(10 + 1)/80 miles = (11√725)/40 miles ≈ 7.405 miles If you had 725 of the furlong by chain fields next to each other along the furlong side, it would form a rectangle 1 furlong by 725 chains which gives: perimeter = 2 × (1/8 + 725 × 1/80) miles = 726/40 miles = 18 3/20 miles = 18.15 miles. If the 725 files were next to each other along the chain side, it for form a rectangle 1 chain by 725 furlongs which gives: perimeter = 2 × (1/80 + 725 × 1/80) miles = 7251/40 miles = 181 11/40 miles = 181.275 miles
How many feet equals one and one half acre?
"Acre" is a unit of area. It doesn't tell you anything about the shape.1.5 acres can be many different shapes ... square, rectangle, circle. If you only know the area, you can't say anything about the shape or size.IF by pure chance it just happens to be square, then it's about 256 feet on every side.But it could be a circle, or any one of millions of different rectangles, and still have the same 1.5 acres of area.

It depends how the acres are laid out. Is it in a square shape or a rectangle. How much of a rectangle. These are all factors in the perimeter.
How many linear miles around 18000 acres?
The areaof a shape is not sufficient information to determine its shape: 18000 acres could be circular, triangular, or simply an irregular shape. It could be a very long very thin rectangle, with a perimeter that is infinitely large.The only thing that can be said with certainty is that the perimeter must be at least 18.8 miles.The areaof a shape is not sufficient information to determine its shape: 18000 acres could be circular, triangular, or simply an irregular shape.

Is a rectangle a shape with 6 square faces?
No. A rectangle is a two-dimensional shape with four sides and four interior angles measuring 90 degrees. A shape with six square faces would be a cube.

How many feet is the perimeter of 640 acres?
Information about the area is not enough to determine the perimeter. 640 acres is 1 sq mile. The smallest perimeter possible is if the area is in the shape of a circle and in that case the perimeter would be 3.54 miles = 18717 feet. If the area is a square the perimeter would be 4 miles = 21120 feet. If it is a rectangle, then any value greater than 4 miles.
