Approximately 7,260 yards. You need 6 yards of soil per 1000 square feet for 2"
To cover that area to that depth - you would need just under 8 cubic yards of soil.
Well, you know the sqft of the area is ft2, and you need it 4 in. deep. You multiply 600x4=2400sqft of soil needed.
There is about 2800lbs in 2 yards of top soil.
Bushels are a measure of volume. Square yards are a measure of area. The two measurements are incompatible. It's like asking "how many gallons are in an acre?"

To calculate the amount of soil needed, you multiply the area by the desired depth. In this case, you have 9300 square feet and want a depth of 12 inches. Convert the depth to feet (12 inches = 1 foot) and multiply: 9300 square feet x 1 foot = 9300 cubic feet of soil. So, you need 9300 cubic feet of soil to cover the area with a depth of 12 inches.
750 square units of soil.
5' * 3' * 2' = 30 cubic feet = 30/(3*3*3) cubic yards = 1.11... cubic yards.
"How many yards of soil would you need to buy in order to fill up a garden whose measurements are 25 feet long by 18 feet wide by 8 inches high?"
