Here is an example of how sections can be divided.

Section Divisions

To the right is one section from the township T1S-R2E above . Within each section, land may be referred to as half sections, quarter sections, or quarter of a quarter section. (A one-sixteenth division is called a quarter of a quarter as in the NW1/4 of the NW1/4 in the example to the right.)

1/4 section = 160 acres
1/2 section = 320 acres
1   section = 640 acres
