Please house help me, am at land site to purchase it, one acre to be precise but I can't get the accurate measurement of an acre,can anyone help? I have a 30m measurement tape

I don't know the accurate measurement, but some say it's 6and half plots,
Some say its 6plots.
A plot is 120 by 60, they also say this depends on the area.

Hope this isn't too late?

1 acre = 43560 square feet.
1 acre = 4046.8564 square meters

In Nigeria a standard acre is measured 5 chain (330 feet) by 2 chain (132 feet). A measuring chain is 66 feet long.

If your tape has feet markings, measure 330 feet in length and 132 in breath.

If it's only marked in metre, measure 100m in length and 40 m 47 cm in breath.

Ensure the Land is squared.

An acre should be about 4000 square metres. So if its a rectangular piece of land, its length x its breadth (in metres) should give you about 4000m square

Like 63m by 63m or 70m by 60

Thanks so much,for helping me out.you guys were just accurate
