The area of a lot is not enough information to determine its perimeter. The most compact perimeter is approx 740 feet, which is attained by a circular lot.
Consider the following rectangular plots, each is of area 1 acre:
100 ft * 435.6ft : perimeter = 1071.2 ft
10 ft * 4356 ft : perimeter = 8732 ft
1 ft * 4356 ft : perimeter = 87122 ft
0.1 ft * 43560 ft : perimeter = 871200.2 ft
...
0.000001 ft * 43,560,000,000 ft : perimeter = 87,120,000,000 ft (approx) = 16,500,000 miles.
There is virtually no limit to how much the first dimension can be reduced and the perimeter increased.

How many feet are in the perimeter of five square acres?
The perimeter of a 5-acre square lot is 1,866.76 feet or 1,866 feet and 9.12 inches.
How big is a 1 acre lot?

How many feet in the diameter of a 5 acre square lot?
A square with an area of five acres has a diameter of 466.7 feet and a diagonal length of 660 feet.
How many lots of 50 feet by 100 feet in an acre?
1 lot = (50 x 100) = 5000 square ft.1 acre = 43,560 square ft = (43,560 / 5,000) = 8.712 lots
How many lots that are 25 by 100 feet to make acres?
To calculate the number of 25 by 100 feet lots needed to make an acre, we first convert an acre to square feet, which is 43,560 square feet. Then, we divide the total square footage of an acre by the area of one lot (25 feet by 100 feet = 2,500 square feet) to find the number of lots. Therefore, 43,560 square feet divided by 2,500 square feet equals 17.424. This means you would need 18 lots of 25 by 100 feet to make an acre, with a small remainder.
