I'm guessing it's a 6 foot by 8 foot patio (but 6 inches, not feet deep). {Note that typically something like a patio may only use 4 inch depth of concrete}. In the case of 6 inches, it should be specified as 6'x8'x6". A yard of concrete has a volume of 1 cubic yard, which is 3x3x3 = 27 cubic feet.

For the patio depth of 6 inches converts to 0.5 feet, so we have 6 ft x 8 ft x 0.5 ft = 24 ft³. Take 24/27 = 8/9 or 0.8889 cubic yards [0.8889 yards of concrete].
