You need (54,450/number of cubic feet of topsoil in each 40 lb bag) .
-- One on-line source we consulted says that the weight of topsoil ranges
from 50 to 100 pounds per cubic foot.
-- Another one says that topsoil is usually estimated to weigh 1 ton per cubic yard
(27 cubic feet). That would put it at 74.1 pounds per cubic foot ... right in the middle
of the range given by the first source.
I can see where this is going, and you're not going to like it . . .
-- At 75 pounds per cubic foot, that puts 0.533 cubic foot in one 40-pound bag.
-- You would need 102,094 of those bags to do the job !
-- Even if the topsoil you get is exceptionally light, sandy, and airy, and a
40-pound bag holds a full cubic foot, you still need 54,450 of those.
Almost exactly 2.00 cubic yards for every inch of topsoil depth.
That depends upon how deep the soil bed is and how much moisture is in the topsoil. But here are some ballpark numbers for you: A yard of soil will cover a 10' by 10' area to a depth of three inches. In other words, figure a third of a yard per 100 square feet for every inch of depth. Length x width x # of inches deep divided by 324 = the number of cubic yards needed for that task.
40 pounds of topsoil is about 2 cubic feet, which will cover an area of 12 square feet at 2 inches deep.600 square feet divided by 12 square feet per bag is 50 bags.Answer50 bags
Insufficient information.You need to know the depth of topsoil you want to cover those 7550 sq ft.By "yards" I assume you mean cubic yards -- a volume measurement.
1 Cubic Yard Spread To A Depth Of 1.5" Will Cover 216 Sq. Ft Or 20 Sq Meters

You already have a square yard of topsoil, so how does 20 inches of depth get you the volume of topsoil? There are 36 inches in a yard, and you have 20 inches of topsoil depth that's 20/36ths of a yard of topsoil depth. That's 0.555... or about 0.56 yards. The volume of topsoil is 1 yard by 1 yard by 0.56 yards, or about 0.56 cubic yards of topsoil.
