The easiest way to calculate the amount of topsoil you'll need is to multiply the totals together to get the cubed feet.
If you notice you have two units of feet and one of inches. Since 16 inches is over one foot but less than two feet you'll still have to purchase an additional bag of topsoil to cover the extra 4 inches. So let's just round the 16 inches up to 24 inches or 2 feet.
24 ft x 8 ft x 2 ft = 384ft³.

The volume of topsoil is 1 yard by 1 yard by 0.56 yards, or about 0.56 cubic yards of topsoil.
