As the name suggests, an acre-foot is defined as the volume of one acre of surface area to a depth of one foot.. Since an acre is defined as a chain by a furlong (i.e. 66 ft × 660 ft or 20.12 m × 201.17 m), an acre-foot is 43,560 cubic feet (1,233.5 m 3).
One acre equals 1 ⁄ 640 (0.0015625) square mile, 4,840 square yards, 43,560 square feet, [2] or about 4,047 square metres (0.4047 hectares) (see below).While all modern variants of the acre contain 4,840 square yards, there are alternative definitions of a yard, so the exact size of an acre depends upon the particular yard on which it is based.
Conversions between units in the metric system are defined by their prefixes (for example, 1 kilogram = 1000 grams, 1 milligram = 0.001 grams) and are thus not listed in this article. Exceptions are made if the unit is commonly known by another name (for example, 1 micron = 10 −6 metre).
{{convert|1.2|km2|acre+sqyd+ha}} → 1.2 square kilometres (300 acres; 1,400,000 sq yd; 120 ha) In the following, because "board feet" contains a space, using a space to make a combination fails. {{convert|123|cuyd|m3 board feet}} → 123 cubic yards ([convert: unknown unit]) {{convert|123|cuyd|m3+board feet}} → 123 cubic yards (94 m 3 ...
So we have the following conversions. 1 international acre foot ≡ 43,560 international cubic feet = 1233.48183754752 m 3 (exactly) = 325,851 + 3 ⁄ 7 US gallons (exactly) ≈ 271,328.072596 imp gal. I have also added a definition for the US survey version (as noted below).
A killa or acre is measured rectangularly, reckoned as an area 36 karams (198 ft) x 40 karams (220 ft) (43,560 square ft). 1 /5th of a killa or acre is known as bigha 1 Karam = 5.5 feet = 1.83; or Gaj; 1 Yard or Gaj = 36 Inch = 0.91 Metre = 3 feet; 1 Sq Yard = 9 Sq Feet; To convert Sq feet to Sq Yard = Divide by 9
