It is probably easiest to imagine 40 acres in terms of the distance around it. Forty acres is equivalent to a square parcel that measures a quarter-mile on each side. 1 acre = 43,560 square feet to be exact. Thus 40 acres = 1,742,400 square feet. If you have a square parcel, each side would be 1,320 feet. 1 acre = 43,560 square feet 1 acre = 4046.86 square meters 1 mile = 5280 feet, 1/4 mile = 1320 feet 100 meters = 328.08399 feet 100 yards = 300 feet
It's useful to remember that a piece of ground 1 furlong long and 1 chain wide is an acre. Before the advent of the farm tractor this was considered to be a good day's work for the horse pulling the plough and the farm worker guiding it.
A "furlong" comes from a "furrow long" and is 220 yards in length. The "chain" (which was an early measuring device for measuring land) has a length of 22 yards (the same as the length of a cricket pitch from stumps to stumps). By multiplying the 220 yards by the 22 yards you should have 4840 square yards for 1 acre.
So 0.40 of an acre, which is 4 tenths of 4840 = 484 X 4 = 1936 square yards.
