About how many cubic yards are in a cubic meter?
The meter is a bit more than a yard, so a cubic meter will have
a bit more than a cubic yard in it. The cubic meter is actually
about 1.30795 cubic yards, so since we're just doing a "ball park"
estimate, our guess that a cubic meter is about the same as a cubic
yard is only off a bit. A cubic meter is about 1.3 cubic yards if
you wish to get a bit more specific.
