Standard top load washing machine is 27x27.
That's 729 square inches.
6,272,640 square inches in an acre.
That's 8604.444 washing machines.
Now, front load washers have slightly different dimensions....
So a proper initial reply to the question would be- "top load or front load"?

If you lay them on their sides, 4000 washing machines
He did say fill, an acre.... not cover..
So I'd go with the 3 dimensional answer.

Well, if it were covered entirely, wouldn't it be 'full'?

Not sure whether to make a joke about your standards....a joke about you being non-standard....
...or simply type- "recalculating"...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Something else brought out that word today but can't remember what now. May have thought about when my wife came up with a GPS gadget for the car and it kept saying 'recalculating' every time I took a different turn (for the better) and ended up just turning the dang thing off! Now it's going to be in my head all day. Wait, nothing stays in my head for very long these days...

My American made Whirlpool (Top-loader style)
newish (2020) std washing machine & dryer (front-loader) are the same size
25.5" deep & 27" wide
(The main body is 35" tall give or take, not counting the control panel)
not all "std" for washing machines/brands are equal in size,
as in 27" x 27" maybe 1 company std, not all of them
not including height dimensions either,
front or top-loader ?
widely varied in sizes even by brands/makes/models
then there's the stackables (that fit in a closet or RV, an apt. etc. with no room)
that are narrower & maybe shorter still
so is their ''std'' sizes
we'd need far more specifics on what qualifies as "std", to be 100% accurate
just saying

That can be one of the few benefits of – aging – hearing stuff you don’t want to – remember…
Chicken dinner? If I can get TWO breasts, I’ll play – no one offers this unless it’s a special order at additional cost.acre of land!?? Winner gets a chicken dinner...... @kiwigtx the washing machine king but anyone can guess. And don't axe me because I don't know
Who doesn’t like two breast? Oh wait, are we talking chicken?
Depends on how many cars are parked there now.

My machine is approximately 650mm x 660mm....which in old money is 26-1/2" x 27" roughly....give or take a few red CH's.
So, I'm going for the answer of 9,433 washing machines to fill an acre. A Sawzall may be required in some territories.
I wonder what would happen if they were all switched on at the same time with a single large beach towel in each one. When the spin cycle come on, and the towel is lop-sided, the vibration would surely register on the Richter Scale? Similar to every Chinaman jumping up in the air at the same time.
