A "cubic foot" is a measure of volume (three dimensional), while "square inches" is a measure of area (two dimensional), so the two measurements can't be equated.

In 2D: there are 144 square inches in one square foot.

In 3D: there are 1728 cubic inches in one cubic foot.

"Cubic inch" is a unit of capacity or volume ... the space that an object occupies.

"Square foot" is a unit of surface area ... like the size of a rug or a corn-field.

The two units have different physical 'dimensions', they're used to measure completely different

kinds of quantities, and neither one can be converted to the other one. That would be like trying

to convert your age from years into acres or gallons.

Although the above is correct, another answer is: One over infinity.
