Square feet measure a 2-dimensional object. Cubic yards measure a 3-dimensional object. Converting a 2-d object to a 3-d one can't be done.
However, if you meant to ask for cubic feet to cubic yards, then: divide by 27. The 27 comes from: 1 yard = 3 feet -> 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet.
If you meant to ask for square feet to square yards, then: divide by 9.
1 yard = 3 feet -> 1 square yard = 9 square feet.
