How many 40-pound bags of topsoil do you need to cover 177 square feet?

That dependsThat depends upon how deep you wish to cover the area. It also depends upon the moisture content of the soil in the bags. Bagged soil is usually pretty wet, so you're paying for water, to a certain extent. Moist topsoil weighs about 90 pounds per cubic foot, so a 40-pound bag is less than half a cubic foot -- 0.44 cubic foot, to be more exact.So, you're going to need about 34 bags -- FOR EVERY INCH OF DEPTH !! -- to cover the area. If the dirt isn't too wet, you might get away with 30 bags per inch of depth.**Actually a 40lbs bag is closer to .75cf. **

How many 40 pound bags of topsoil do you need to cover 5 acres at 3 inches depth?

You need (54,450/number of cubic feet of topsoil in each 40 lb bag) .-- One on-line source we consulted says that the weight of topsoil rangesfrom 50 to 100 pounds per cubic foot.-- Another one says that topsoil is usually estimated to weigh 1 ton per cubic yard(27 cubic feet). That would put it at 74.1 pounds per cubic foot ... right in the middleof the range given by the first source.I can see where this is going, and you're not going to like it . . .-- At 75 pounds per cubic foot, that puts 0.533 cubic foot in one 40-pound bag.-- You would need 102,094 of those bags to do the job !-- Even if the topsoil you get is exceptionally light, sandy, and airy, and a40-pound bag holds a full cubic foot, you still need 54,450 of those.

How many pound coins cover a football pitch?

A pound coin is 22½ mm diameter, while a football pitch is approximately 100 x 40 metres, so 4000 square metres. Each coin fits in a 22½ mm square, which is an area of 0.0225 x 0.0225 square metres. That is .0005 square metres. The ratio of the areas is 4000 / .0005 so that football pitch would take 7.9 million pound coins.
