Suppose you have 27 square feet -that's equal to 3 square yards... Just picture in your mind that 3 square feet wide, by 3 squares feet long, to envision that 9 square feet are equal to one square yard. But please specify 'yards of what' in the future...
How you figure the square yards really depends on the shape of the plot. I'll tell you how to do it for a rectangle. If you have a different shape, then you can get the arithmetic from the lawn and garden or hardware store. -- Measure the length, in feet. -- Measure the width, in feet. -- Multiply the two numbers. -- That gives you the number of square feet. -- For square yards, divide the number by 9 .
