How many yards in a cubic yard?
There are no yards in a cubic yard, because a yard is a linear unit of distance, whereas a cubic yard is a spacial unit of volume. A cubic yard is the volume occupied by a cube that measures one yard -- that's one linear yard -- on each edge. Since a linear yard equals three linear feet, a cubic yard is equal to 3 x 3 x 3 = 27 cubic feet.
