one 'marla' is 9 (Sarsai) square karams = 9 x (5.5x5.5) = 272.25 Sq ft =30.25 Sq yard. one 'kanaal' is 20 marlas (5,445 sq ft) = 605 Sq.yard (Gajz) one 'bigha' is 20 biswa (21,780 sq ft) one 'bigha' = 20 nisa; one 'bigha' = 4 kanals; 5 'kanaals' (27225 sq. ft) = 5x605 = 100 marla = 3025 sq.yd. (gajz) one 'killa' is of 8 kanaals = 8x605 = 4840sq ...
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.
The marla was standardized under British raj to be equal to the square rod, or 272.25 square feet, 30.25 square yards, or 25.2929 square metres. As such, it was exactly one 160th of an acre. As such, it was exactly one 160th of an acre.
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). There has been two definitions of the acre-foot (differing by about 0.0006%), using either the international foot (0.3048 m) or a U.S. survey foot (exactly 1200 / 3937 meters since
The rod is useful as a unit of length because integer multiples of it can form one acre of square measure (area). The 'perfect acre' [2] is a rectangular area of 43,560 square feet, bounded by sides 660 feet (a furlong) long and 66 feet (a chain) wide (220 yards by 22 yards) or, equivalently, 40 rods by 4 rods. An acre is therefore 160 square ...
One bigha is equal to 20 Katha (14,400 square feet or 1,600 square yard) as standardized in pre-partition Bengal during the British rule. In other words, 3 bigha are just 0.5 Katha or 360 sq ft short of 1 acre. (One Acre = 4,840 sq yd or 43,560 sq ft or 4,047 sq m).
One square yard is equivalent to: 1,296 square inches; 9 square feet; ≈0.00020661157 acres; ≈0.000000322830579 square miles; 836 127.36 square millimetres; 8 361.2736 square centimetres; 0.83612736 square metres; 0.000083612736 hectares; 0.00000083612736 square kilometres; 1.00969 gaj [1]
A kanal is a unit of area used in the Indian Subcontinent.It is primarily used in northern India and Pakistan. Under British rule, the marla and kanal were standardized so that the kanal equals 605 square yards or 1 ⁄ 8 acre (0.051 ha), roughly equivalent to 506 square metres.
