A LITTLE UNDER TWO; A SQUARE YD. IS DETERMINED BY MULTIPLYING THE LENGTH TIMES THE WIDTH. EXAMPLE; 3X3... OF COURSE=9 CU. FT. BUT......"CUBIC" YD. WHICH IS WHAT YOU'RE AFTER, IS LENGTH TIMES WITDTH TIMES HEIGHT. A YARD IS THREE FEET LONG..................... HENCE 3X3X3= "27" CUBIC FEET IN EVERY YARD. NOW YOU MUST FIND OUT HOW MANY CUBIC FT. IN YOUR CONTAINER WHICH YOU SAY MEASURES 8'X3'X2'................WELL 8X3=24X2=48 CUBIC FT. IN YOUR CONTAINER RIGHT............. NOW IT'S SIMPLE ADDITION & SUBTRACTION!! IF THERE ARE 27 CU. FT. IN A YARD,... TWO YDS. CONTAIN 54 CU. FT. SO...... 54-48=4 CU. FT. LEFT OVER. HOPE YOU FOUND THAT TO BE CORRECT.

A hole that is 2 yards wide3 yards long and 1 yard deep How many cubic feet of dirt are in it?
None because it's a hole but 6 cubic yards of dirt will fill it up.
How many yards of dirt do you need to fill 289 square feet?
You also need to specify the average depth.(And by "yards" we assume you mean cubic yards).
How many yards of dirt would it take to fill an area of 747 square feet?
You are mixing volume (square yard) and area (length x width). How deep do you want the dirt? One foot deep you need about 80 square yards of dirt.

How many yards dirt needed for 8 ft x 4 ft x 1 ft?
A yard of dirt is 3ft x 3ft x 3ft, or 27 cubic ft. The hole you need to fill is 8ft x 4ft x 1ft, or 32 cubic ft. You'll need 32/27th yards of dirt, or about 1.19 yards of dirt. Call it a yard and a half if you want to account for settling.
If you figured an area is 600 cubic yards how many yards of dirt do you need to fill that area?
To calculate the volume of dirt needed to fill the area, you would need to know the depth of the area in yards. If the depth is 3 yards, then you would need 1800 yards of dirt (600 cubic yards ÷ 3 yards). If the depth is 1 yard, then you would need 600 yards of dirt.
