55 square yards.
Approximately 6' X 9'.
4 inches = 4/9 = 1/9th yard 1 square yard x 1/9th yard = 1/9th cubic yard = 3 cubic feet
That depends upon how deep the soil bed is and how much moisture is in the topsoil. But here are some ballpark numbers for you: A yard of soil will cover a 10' by 10' area to a depth of three inches. In other words, figure a third of a yard per 100 square feet for every inch of depth. Length x width x # of inches deep divided by 324 = the number of cubic yards needed for that task.
1 cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet. At a six inch depth 1 cubic foot will cover 2 square feet, so 27 cubic feet will cover 54 square feet.
A cubic yard of finely crushed asphalt will weigh about 2,600 pounds
Most paving is about 40% asphalt. So about 40% of a cubic yard.
As a rule of thumb - 1 cubic yard of asphalt weighs 4000 lbs (2 tons) +-
3 feet x 3 feet
54sqare feet
55 square yards.
Approximately 6' X 9'.
Asphalt installation is usually bid by the square yard, the installer will buy asphalt by the ton, and it will be delivered in a truck measured in cubic yards. Therefore, a volume/weight/area ratio is required. In short, an estimator will typically assume that one square yard of compacted asphalt laid one inch deep will weigh approximately 111 pounds.
call your local asphalt company... prices vary on the region.

27 cu. ft in 1 yard, 4 into 12 3 times, 27x3=81. 81 sq. ft .
I work with asphalt, paving roads. We have to figure out how mush asphalt it will take to pave or resurface a road. We do this based on the length, width and how thick we are going to put it down. With a known weight per square yard we can figure out how many tons of asphalt we will need for a given road. We also use this in reverse to check how much asphalt we are putting down per square yard as we go along.
