This is so simple for you that I feel so terribly stupid just asking it, but, my property is 65.5 feet by 130 feet.  what is my acreage?  Thank you, vonis 
 

 

Hi Vonis,

A rectangular plot of land, 65.5 feet by 130 feet is

65.5 130 = 8515 square feet.

There are 43,560 square feet in an acre so your property is

 8515/43,560 = 0.20 acres or 1/5 of an acre.
