Before calculating, it is easier to convert sizes to similar units, in this case, feet.
1 sq. mile = 5280 feet x 5280 feet = 27,878,400 sq.ft.

100 sq. miles = 27,878,400 sq. ft. x 100 = 2,787,840,000 sq. ft.

1 football field (including end zones) = 360 ft. long by 160 ft. wide = 57,600 sq.ft.

100 sq. miles divided by 1 football field = x

x = how many football fields fit into 100 square miles

2,787,840,000 sq. ft. divided by 57,600 sq. ft. = 48,400 football fields

Therefore, 100 square miles = 48,400 football fields
*********************************************************

About CNEX now, 650 hectares = 2.5 square miles, it was said in an earlier post.

100 sq miles divided by 48,400 fields = 2.5 sq miles divided by X fields

Solve for X = 1210 football fields that Cannon has!
