Mathematically, a yard is a measure of length, has only one dimension and thus has no volume which has three dimensions; so no matter how many of them you have you will never get a volume of 15 cu ft.If you are using "yard" in the slang, builders' way to represent cubic yards, then:1 yd = 3 ft1 cu yd = 1 yd x 1 yd x 1 yd= 3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft= 27 cu ft⇒ 15 cu ft = 15 ÷ 27 cu yd= 5/9 cu yd≈ 0.56 cu yd
3 ft = 1 yd 36 in = 1 yd ⇒ 50 ft x 7 ft x 4 in = (50 ÷ 3) yd x (7 ÷ 3) yd x (4 ÷ 36) yd = 350/81 cu yd = 426/81 cu yd ≈ 4.321 cu yd
717.5 cu ft = 26.57 cu yd
1 ft = 1/3 yd → 1 cu ft = 1 ft × 1 ft × 1 ft = 1/3 yd × 1/3 yd × 1/3 yd = 1/23 cu yd So work out the volume of your hole by multiplying the dimensions together (ft × ft × ft) and divide the result by 27 to get the volume in cu yards, ie: volume in cubic yards = (ft × ft × ft) ÷ 27
3 ft = 1 yd volume = 12 ft x 12 ft x 2 ft = 12 ÷ 3 yd x 12 ÷ 3 yd x 2 ÷ 3 yd = 10 2/3 cu yd ≈ 10.67 cu yd
