  • Conversion of acres in square miles :

    1 square mile = 640 acres – US

    x square miles = 954M acres – US

    Cross multiply :

    640x = 954M * 1

    x = 954M / 640

    x = 1.491M square miles

    (M = millions)

    What percentage of U.S. land is farmland?

    (1.491M * 100) / 3.537M = 42.15 %
