the perimeter is the distance around an object.if the object was square the perimeter would be 4 times on of the sides. If the object is rectangular or other shaped the perimeter would be the sum of the distances of the sides. 1 acre is 43,560 square feet. If you assume that the 128 acres is perfectly square then you can easily find the perimeter:128 acres x 43,560 square feet pper acre is 5,575,680square feet. the square root of this is 2361.3 feet Therefore one side is 2361.3 feet. The peremeter is 4 x 2361.3 = 9445.2 feet. However the problme does not specify the shape of the acrage. what if it was 1 foot wide. the shape would be a rectangle 1 foot wide by 5,575,680 feet. the perimeter would be 1 foot + 5,575,680 feet + 1 foot + 5,575,680 feet = 11,151,362 feet. check the shape of the land or assume it is square.
