That's a "section". There are 36 of them in a township.
AnswerThere is no formula that equates one acre to one square mile. At least there is no TRUE formula that does so. I mean I could type 1 acre = 1 mi2, and that would be a formula, but it would not be true. Because one acre is NOT equal to one square mile, and never will be. In fact, it takes 640 acres to equal a square mile.
One square mile is 27,878,400 square feet.
One half mile times one half mile is equal to one quarter square mile.
A square mile is equal to 5,280 feet by 5,280 feet, which means there are 27,878,400 square feet in one square mile.
1 acre is equal to . . . -- 43,560 square feet -- 4,840 square yards -- 1/640 square mile -- 0.0015625 square mile
A township in the United States typically consists of 36 sections. Each section is one square mile, making the entire township cover an area of 36 square miles. This division is part of the Public Land Survey System used for land management and property description.

"Square mile" is the correct name. In the Dominion Land Survey of Canada each township is divided into thirty-six sections, each section is about one square mile.
27,878,400 square feet equal 1 square mile.
There are 23,040 acres in a theoretical township. A theoretical township is 6 miles square, containing 36 sections, 1 mile square, of 640 acres each.
A square mile means an area, equal to a square of side 1 mile
Yes. It has an area of 1 square mile; that's the same as 640 acres. A square that measures 6 miles on a side and has 36 of these 1-mile squares in it is a "township".
To calculate square feet you need both a length and a width.1 mile is equal to 5,280 linear feet. One square mile (1 mile x 1 mile) is equal to 27,878,400 square feet.
You are revering to the section, township, range system of surveying land then it is 640 acres in a section (one square mile) which will equal 5,120 acres.
No. One square mile = 640 acres.
One square mile is equal to 3,097,600 square yards
