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.


How do you calculate perimeter in acres?

There is no one answer, it depends on the shape. The smallest value of perimeter will be for a circle. For a four sided shape the smallest will be for a square, for a rectangle the perimeter gets bigger the longer and narrower the area becomes. Knowing the area in acres gives the number of square yards only, you have to know either the length or width, work out the width or length as the case may be, then just add up the four sides.
