∙ 14y ago154 square feet x 0.5 feet deep = 77 cubic feet.
1 yard = 3 feet so 1 cubic yard = 3 feet x 3 feet x 3 feet = 27 cubic feet.
77 cubic feet * ( 1 cubic yard / 27 cubic feet ) = 2.85 cubic yards. so buy 3.

77/9 cubic yards for every inch of depth.
36 inches is 1 yard and so 2 times 1 = 2 square yards
Almost exactly 2.00 cubic yards for every inch of topsoil depth.
If you multiply inches times inches, you get square inches. You can convert that to square yards, but not to yards.
You would need 31.88 cubic yards of topsoil to cover 855 sq feet at 6 inches deep.
You already have a square yard of topsoil, so how does 20 inches of depth get you the volume of topsoil? There are 36 inches in a yard, and you have 20 inches of topsoil depth that's 20/36ths of a yard of topsoil depth. That's 0.555... or about 0.56 yards. The volume of topsoil is 1 yard by 1 yard by 0.56 yards, or about 0.56 cubic yards of topsoil.

A cubic yard of stone that is 4" thick would cover 9 square yards or 81 square feet. If you need to cover 7000 sq. ft., you would need roughly 86.5 cubic yards. That's a lot of rock.

Whereas a yard is a unit of length, a square yard is a unit of area. Therefore, one cannot ask how many yards are in a square yard because the units are incompatible. Perhaps you meant to ask How many square feet are in eight square yards. Since there are nine square feet in a square yard, eight square yards equals 72 square feet. There is another unit for measuring a volume of topsoil, stone, or cement. It, too, is called a yard but is really a cubic yard. It is an amount of material that will fill a 3' x 3' x 3' space. It is equivalent to 27 cubic feet. You can see how this could lead to confusion. Perhaps you wish to cover an area of eight square yards of ground with topsoil or mulch or stone -- whatever. The material is sold by the yard, but that yard (a unit of volume) is not the same as the square yard you used to measure the area of the ground. The question would then become How many yards of dirt do you need to cover an area of eight square yards? Which prompts the question How deep do you want it?
39.1116 cubic yards
One square yard is nine square feet, so 27 square feet is equivalent to 3 square yards. So 3 yards of concrete will cover 27 square feet.
Insufficient information.You need to know the depth of topsoil you want to cover those 7550 sq ft.By "yards" I assume you mean cubic yards -- a volume measurement.
