First, make sure you're using the right units of measurement. "Yards" measure length, while "cubic feet" measure volume. I think you mean cubic yards. In this case, you first need to figure out how many cubic feet are in a cubic yard. Just like there are 3 feet in one yard, there are 9 square feet in 1 square yard (3^2 feet = 1^2 yards). So, there are 27 cubic feet in 1 cubic yard (3^3 feet = 1^3 yards).

Since you are looking for cubic yards in 12 cubic feet, and 12 is less than 27, you can see that the number of cubic yards will be less than 1. Specifically, it will be the fraction 12/27 cubic yards, which reduces to 4/9 cubic yards.
