An acre is 4840 sq yards. It can square, rectangular, long and thin, or any shape!
A mile is a measure of length. An area that is 1 mile by 1 mile square contains 640 acres.
A mile (UK) is 1760 yards long. If you have one acre of land that is a thin strip only 2.75 yards wide, it will be exactly one mile long (2.75 x 1760 = 4840)

SteveAn acre is a unit of area and a mile is a unit of linear distance. In that sense, neither is longer. a mile is a unit of length. a acre is a unit of area. therefore none are greater as they are different units of measurment. however if you were on about a square mile... or an acre.. the answer is an acre... 1 acre = .0015625 square miles. One square mile = 640 acres
