A "yard of gravel" is a measure of volume, not a measure of area. There are 27 cubic feet (3x3x3 feet) in a yard of gravel, or one cubic yard.

To determine the number of 5-gallon buckets of sand in a yard, you need to know the volume of a yard in cubic feet and the volume of a 5-gallon bucket in cubic feet. One cubic yard is equivalent to 27 cubic feet, and a 5-gallon bucket holds approximately 0.67 cubic feet of material. Therefore, you would divide the volume of a yard by the volume of a bucket to find the number of buckets needed.
If you have a gallon, you only can have one gallon.
