The acre is a statute measure in the U.S., in the U.K. and in almost all countries of the former British Empire and is mostly used to measure the area of land.
A square yard(sq.yd) is a unit of area measurement equal to a square measuring one yard on each side.
Formula to convert acre to square yards.
The relationship between an acre and square yards is that 1 acre is equal to 4840 sq.yd.
Therefore, to convert acres to sq.yd, we divide the area in acres by 4,840.
Area in sq.yd = Area in Acre x 4,840
Example:
Convert 50 acre to sq.yd.
= 50 x 4,840
= 242,000 sq.yd
