An Acre was originally the amount of land an ox could plough in one day and was 1 chain wide by 10 chains long, or 22yds x 220yds or 66ft x 660ft.

In modern measurements an acre is 43,500 square feet. 3 acres would be 130,680 square feet. The square root of 130,680 is 361.5 (361.496887953 rounded up)

So if the 3 acres were perfectly square this would be measure 361.5 feet long and 361.5 feet wide.

However, acres are not typically in perfect squares. Acres measure an area of land and not a perfect shape; so long as the square footage is accurate, the actual length and width will vary between most parcels of land.

Another answer:

question needs more detail , however ;

3 acres = 130 680 square feet,

361 x 361 = 130 ,321 ; hence an area measuring 361 by 361
length / width , will be almost 3 acres of measure of land
