4 cubic yards is 108 cubic feet.
If you were pouring a concrete sidewalk that was 6" thick and 4 ' wide.
it would be 54' long.
If you wanted to topdress a lawn with loam, guessing an average coverage of 4".
It will cover an area about about 16' x 20'
With an average coverage of 2" it will do an area roughly 32' x 32'.

How much rock does it take to cover 3139 sq ft at 2 in?
19.38 cubic yards. Round up to at least 20 yards.
20ftx20ftx 6 area to cover in sand How much sand will it take and what is the formula for estimating sand coverage?
This is a volume calculation. I assume the dimension for the "6" is inches? If so, the volume= 20x20x0.5= 200 cubic ft.= 7.4 cubic yards
How do you figure out cubic yard for mulching?
You need to know how much area you are covering and how thick you want the mulch to be. Roughly 3 inches thick is good enough. That is 3/12 = 0.25 feet thick Take area in square feet times thickness in feet, which gives a volume in cubic feet, then divide by 27 to covert to cubic yards For example, if you want to mulch an an area that is 75 feet long and 5 feet wide, the volume is 75 x 5 x .25 = 93.75 cu ft 93.75/27 = 3.5 yards (3 and 1/2 yards)
How many yards of dirt would it take to fill an area 12 feet wide by 78 feet long by 6 inches high?
1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet6 inches = 1/2 footVolume of the ditch = (12 x 78 x 1/2) = 468 cubic feet = 17 1/3 cubic yards
How much concrete would it take to fill a 16' x 16' x 6'?
27 cubic feet = 1 cubic yard 16' x 16' x 6' = 1,536 cubic feet = 568/9 cubic yards
