How do you determined which units to place in the numerator and the denominator if you use the conversion factor that you would use to convert feet to miles?
Answer: To convert feet to miles, you multiply by miles per foot. This is 1 mile / 5280 feet. Answer: You use either the conversion factor 5280 feet / 1 mile, or the reciprocal, 1 mile / 5280 feet. Both are equal to 1, so you are just multiplying by one. If you do it the wrong way, in your answer you will get units like square feet / mile, or square miles / feet. Both of these are technically correct, but quite useless in this context - so you just use the other conversion factor. Example: Convert 10 miles to feet. If you multiply by 1 mile / 5280 feet, you get (1/528) square miles/feet, which is sort of useless. If you multiply by 5280 feet / 1 miles instead, you get 52800 (miles) (feet/miles); here you can cancel the miles, to get only feet in the final result. In summary, choose the conversion factor in such a way that the "unwanted" unit cancels.

How many miles long is the periphery of a 1000 acre plot of land?
1000 acres is 43,560,000 square feet. So the size can vary based on the shape. Maximum size could be 87,120,002 feet around the piece of land, which would be the same as (divide by 5280) about 16,500 miles. Of course that is a bit ridiculous and you would only be able to grow spaggheti on hit. But if it was square, which is going to be the smallest possible parameter, 6600 feet on each side, which would be the same as 5 miles square.
