It depends upon the size of the bags, the density of the sand, and the depth of sand. For example, if the density is 100 lbs/cubic foot, the bags are 50 lbs each, and you want a depth of 1 inch, then:
31.25 sq ft X 1 inch X 1/12 ft/inch X 100 lbs/cubic foot / 50 lbs/bag = 5.2 bags
Better get 6 bags to have enough. If the depth of sand, density of sand, or size of bags is different than what I assumed for this example, then plug your numbers into the equation above.
Volume of sand required = 6 ft * 5 ft * 1 ft = 30 cubic feet. A bag = 3 cubic feet so number of bags required = 30/3 = 10 bags.Volume of sand required = 6 ft * 5 ft * 1 ft = 30 cubic feet. A bag = 3 cubic feet so number of bags required = 30/3 = 10 bags.Volume of sand required = 6 ft * 5 ft * 1 ft = 30 cubic feet. A bag = 3 cubic feet so number of bags required = 30/3 = 10 bags.Volume of sand required = 6 ft * 5 ft * 1 ft = 30 cubic feet. A bag = 3 cubic feet so number of bags required = 30/3 = 10 bags.
To calculate the number of 50 lb bags of play sand needed for an 8x8'x12'' sandbox, first determine the volume of the sandbox. The volume is 8 ft x 8 ft x 1 ft (12 inches is 1 ft), which equals 64 cubic feet. Since one cubic foot of sand weighs about 100 lbs, you need approximately 6,400 lbs of sand. Dividing this by the weight of each bag (50 lbs), you will need about 128 bags of play sand.
To determine the number of 50-pound bags of sand needed for 576 square feet, you first need to know the depth of sand you plan to apply. For example, if you want to apply a 1-inch layer, you would need approximately 0.5 cubic yards of sand, which is about 13 bags (since one 50-pound bag covers roughly 0.5 cubic feet). Adjust the number of bags accordingly based on the desired depth.
Volume required = 95 sq ft * 2 inch = 95 sq ft * 1/6 sq ft = 95/6 cu ft = 15.833... cu ft. So number of bags @5 cu ft reqd = 15.833.../5 = 3.166... bags ie 4 bags.
To determine how many 60 lb bags of sand are needed to cover 177 square feet, you first need to know the desired depth of the sand layer. Assuming a common depth of 1 inch, you would need approximately 0.5 cubic yards of sand, which is equivalent to about 13.5 cubic feet. Since a 60 lb bag of sand typically covers around 0.5 cubic feet, you would need around 27 bags to cover 177 square feet at a 1-inch depth.
I need one and a haft yards of sand. If the bags hold 2 cu feet how many bags do I need

400 sq ft at 1 inch = 400x1/12 cu ft = 33.33 cu ft sand weighs 100 pounds per cu ft 33.33 X 100 = 3333 pounds at 50 lb per bag, that is 3333/50 = 66.7 bags
27 1 cu ft bags or 9 3 cu ft bags.
560 bags
Volume required = 95 sq ft * 2 inch = 95 sq ft * 1/6 sq ft = 95/6 cu ft = 15.833... cu ft. So number of bags @5 cu ft reqd = 15.833.../5 = 3.166... bags ie 4 bags.

1 ft = 12 in → 1 in = 1/12 ft Volume required to cover is 90 sq ft × 1 in = 90 sq ft × 1/12 ft = 7.5 cu ft → number of bags = 7.5 cu ft ÷ 0.8 cu ft/bag = 9.375 bags → you need to buy 10 bags
49 bags. The density of loose sand is about 90 lbs/cu. ft. There are 27 cu. ft. in a cu. yard. Therefore 27 * 90 equals a total weight of 2,430 lbs. for a cu. yard of sand. Given 50 lbs. per bag of sand, you divide 2430 by 50 and get 48.6 bags of sand. Round up to 49.
There are 9 cu ft in a yard x 12 = 108 then divide by 2 = 54 bags
