to figure yards of soil you need cubic feet ( 400 sq ft X how deep??)then divide by 9

To cover that area to that depth - you would need just under 8 cubic yards of soil.

5' * 3' * 2' = 30 cubic feet = 30/(3*3*3) cubic yards = 1.11... cubic yards.

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?"
You would need 3,355 cubic yards of soil to cover 6 acres at 24 inches deep.
Typically, a bag of soil contains 0.5 cubic feet. To cover 1.5 cubic yards, you would need 81 bags of soil (1.5 x 27 = 40.5 cubic feet, 40.5 / 0.5 = 81).
The answer will depend on how thick you want the coverage to be. If you want: 1. Two Inches = 18 square yards 2. Three Inches = 12 Square yards 3. Four Inches = 9 square yards See the pattern here? If the dirt was a Cube of 3ft x 3ft x 3ft, then you divide 36" by the thickness of coverage in inches. The answer is the number of Square Yards of coverage.
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.
