A hectare is 10,000 square meters, or 2.47 meters.

Not sure of the origin of acre but I believe a section (one square mile) is 625 acres, so 25 acres on the edge of a square mile. Sounds about right since an acre is a square roughly 208 feet long on each side. 208 x 25 = 5200.

I had a hard time getting the button to chose country to work but eventually pressed "English." I got hectares.
