The answer is 750.42 feet There are 16.50 feet to a Rod ( A three Rod Road is 49.50 Feet wide) There are 25 Links to a Rod . One Link is 0.66 Feet
A pole (also called a rod or perch) is an old form of linear measure equivalent to 5½ yards which is 16½ feet. To convert poles to feet multiply by 16½ - or multiply by 33 and then divide by 2.
1 rod = 16.5 feet
1 rod is 16.5 feet (16 feet 6 inches).
The English unit divisions of a mile are: quarter mile - 1320 feet (440 yards) furlong - 660 feet (220 yards) chain - 66 feet (22 yards) rod - 16.5 feet yard - 3 feet foot - 1/5280 mile So there are 3 feet to a yard, 5.5 yards to a rod, 4 rods to a chain, 10 chains in a furlong, 8 furlongs per mile. Because of the 1/8 division, 5 furlongs is almost exactly 1 kilometer (off by 16 feet).
chain = 66 feet. rod = 16.5 feet [1/4 of a chain]. link = 7.92 inches (1/100 of a chain). acre = 10 square chains (10 chains by 1 chain = 660 ft x 66 ft = 43560 sq ft)
The answer is 750.42 feet There are 16.50 feet to a Rod ( A three Rod Road is 49.50 Feet wide) There are 25 Links to a Rod . One Link is 0.66 Feet

1 rod = 16.5 feet
In length, old units not much used nowadays are: furlong = 220 yards, chain = 22 yards, rod,pole, or perch = 5.5 yards, link = 1/100 of a chain.
1 rod is 16.5 feet (16 feet 6 inches).
The English unit divisions of a mile are: quarter mile - 1320 feet (440 yards) furlong - 660 feet (220 yards) chain - 66 feet (22 yards) rod - 16.5 feet yard - 3 feet foot - 1/5280 mile So there are 3 feet to a yard, 5.5 yards to a rod, 4 rods to a chain, 10 chains in a furlong, 8 furlongs per mile. Because of the 1/8 division, 5 furlongs is almost exactly 1 kilometer (off by 16 feet).
The original answer (below) was off by a factor of 3, a surveyor's rod = 5.5 yards. So (2 yards)/(5.5 yards/rod) = 4/11 rod or about 0.364 rod.This is the original answer refers to fencing rod, but this is actually 5.5 yards (not feet) as originally stated. I found reference to an 80 rod roll equal to 1320 feet (see link).
One rod is equal to 16.5 feet. 5 1/2 yards equal a rod, or 16.5 feet.
1 square rod = 272.25 square feet.
16.5 feet
80 rod or 1320 feet (1 rod = 16.5 feet)
