A linear unit is used to measure length or distance whereas a cubic unit is used to measure volumes. A cubic unit may defined as a cubic measure (eg a litre) or it could be composed of three linear units (eg cubic centimetre), or a square unit and a linear one (acre-foot). This last combination is rare in the SI system because the linear units are more easily linked to square and cubic units.

How you devid sq foot into cubic yds?
You can't convert that. You can convert linear units to linear units, square units to square units, or cubic units to cubic units.
Calculate cubic units in a rectangle?
A rectangle has a perimeter with linear units, and a surface area with square units. It has no cubic units.
How do you get the answer 140.608 in. in cubic units?
Linear units, like inches, can't be converted to cubic units. If they could, then you'd be able to calculate your height in gallons.
Can the perimeter of a desk be measured in cubic units?
No. Just like a length, a perimeter is measured in linear units.
Does English have relationship between units of volume and cubed linear units?
When you say "English", I'm assuming you mean the "customary" system of units of measure that's used in two English speaking countries and a Burmese one. In that system, the volume units of cubic inch, cubic foot, and cubic yard are quite common. Also the cubic mile, though not so commonly heard.

How many cu feet in 573 inches?
You can't convert between linear units and cubic units.
Calculate cubic units in a rectangle?
A rectangle has a perimeter with linear units, and a surface area with square units. It has no cubic units.
How many centimeters are in cubic feet?
None. You cannot convert linear units to cubic units.
How many linear feet are in a cubic yard?
linear feet and cubic yards (areas) are different units of measurement and can not be equated.
What is the difference between the units for linear measurement and units for measuring perimeter?
A linear unit is a one-dimensionn line; a square unit is area. A linear unit is a distance measurment like 1 inch, 2 miles, or 3 kilometers. A square unit is expressed in square, like 2 square feet.
How do you get the answer 140.608 in. in cubic units?

What do you measure soccer fields in linear square or cubic units?
A soccer field is defined by linear measurements.
Is perimeter measured in cubic units or square?
A perimeter is measured in LINEAR units. Neither 'square' units nor 'cube' units.
Can the perimeter of a desk be measured in cubic units?
No. Just like a length, a perimeter is measured in linear units.
How many Linear meters is 866 cubic meters?
A linear metre is a unit of length. A cubic metre is a unit of capacity. The two units are therefore incompatible.
