None. A rod is a measure of length or distance while an acre is a measure of area. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.


How many acres in piece measured 73 rods by 60 rods by 53 rods by 66 rods?

The shape of the piece is not clear. It is either a quadrilateral. In that case, knowing the lengths of the four sides is not enough to determine its shape - in the same way that a square and a rhombus can have the same four sides but very different areas. Alternatively, it is a shape in 4-dimensional hyperspace in which case an acre is not an appropriate measure for its size.

How did we measure a building when there was no rulers?

The earliest known length measurement unit is the cubit: the length from the point of a bent elbow to the tip of the longest finger. Because this length varies from person to person the King's arm was used as the standard cubit and "cubit rods" were cut to that length and used by everyone else to measure lengths and distances. Other units were determined similarly: the standard foot being the length of the king's foot, the inch is the length of 3 barley corns placed end to end, etc.
