What is Cent?

Cent is a unit for measuring small pieces of land, typically small agricultural plots and residential properties. The term 'cent' is derived from the word 'centum' which means hundred. Cent is equal to 1/100th of an acre. The durability and adaptability of this unit make it suitable for accurately dividing small pieces of land. 

It is popular in the Southern Indian states such as Kerala and Tamil Nadu, where land prices are often mentioned in cents. However, metric units are predominantly used in real-estate deals in other parts of India.

What is Acre?

Acre is a globally used versatile unit of measurement for land area. One acre is defined as 22 yards by 220 yards, which is 43560 square feet. 

One advantage of an acre is that it can be measured in any shape, such as a rectangle, circle, or hexagon. An acre can be visualized as roughly the area of an American football field (1.32 acres) or 16 tennis courts in a four-by-four formation.

Its straightforward application and easy conversion to other units, such as square feet, gaj, etc., for large land areas make it a popular measuring unit for rural and agricultural land transactions in India.
