"Acre (measurement), a traditional English land measure equal to 0.4 hectares, or 4,047 square meters (4,840 square yards). Originally meaning a field, it was the area that a pair of oxen could plow in a day. By the late 1200s, English law standardized the acre for official use, although local variations in Ireland, Scotland, and some English counties continued." Encarta "One international acre is equal 4046.8564224 m2. One U.S. survey acre is equal to 62726400000/15499969 = 4046.8726098 m2. The area of one acre (red) overlaid on an American football field

One acre comprises 4,840 square yards or 43,560 square feet, (this can be easily remembered as 44,000 square feet, less 1%). Because of alternative definitions of a yard or a foot, the exact size of an acre also varies slightly. Originally, an acre was a selion of land one furlong long and one chain wide. However, an acre is a measure of area, and has no particular width, length or shape. The acre is often used to express areas of land. In the metric system, the hectare is commonly used for the same purpose. An acre is approximately 40% of a hectare. One acre is 90.75 yards of a 53.33-yard-wide American football field. The full field, including the end zones, covers approximately 1.32 acres." Wikipedia 90.75 yard x 53.33 yard = 82.9818m x 48.764952m P = (L x 2) + (W x 2) 82.9818 x 2 = 165.9636 48.764952 x 2 = 97.529904 165.9636 + 97.529904 = 263.493504 m
