The area of a square piece of land in Kelantan is 169 hectares.
Calculate the length of one side of the land in feet. (1 hectare is equal to 10,000 sq meters)!!
:
169 * 10000 = 1,690,000
find the length in meters of 1 side: sqrt%281690000%29 = 1300 meters
:
convert 1300 meters to feet (1 meter = 3.281 feet)
1300 * 3.281 = 4265.3 ft on one side
