How much gravel would be needed to cover an area 30 feet by 9 feet to a depth of 5 inches?
1ft = 12 in
→ volume required = 30 ft x 9 ft x 5 in = (30 x 12) in x (9 x 12) in x 5 in = 194400 cu in
1 in = 2.54 cm (exactly)
1 m = 100 cm
→ 1 cu m = 1c00 cm x 100 cm x 100 cm = 1,000,000 cu cm
→ 1 cu in = 1 in x 1 in x 1 in = 2.54 cm x 2.54 cm x 2.54 cm = 16.387064 cu cm
→ 194400 cu in = 194400 x 16.387064 cu cm ≈ 3,185,645 cu cm ≈ 3.186 cu m
Depending upon the gravel used (using coverage figures from a supplier):
20mm gravel:
one 850 kg bag covers aprox 0.6 cu m → 1 kg covers approx 600,000 / 850 cu cm ≈ 705.88 cu cm
→ require approx 3,185,645 / 705.88 kg = 4513 kg = 4.513 tonnes
Pea shingle:
one 25 kg bag covers approx 0.02 cu m → 1 kg covers approx 20,000 / 25 cu cm = 800 cu cm
→ require approx 3,185,645 /800 kg =3982 kg = 3.982 tones
Depending upon the gravel used, you will need about 4 to 5 tonnes

How much pea gravel is needed to cover a 600 square foot driveway?
To determine how much pea gravel is needed to cover a 600 square foot driveway, you first need to decide on the desired depth of the gravel layer, typically 2-3 inches. For example, if you choose a depth of 3 inches (0.25 feet), you would calculate the volume by multiplying the area by the depth: 600 sq ft x 0.25 ft = 150 cubic feet. Since pea gravel typically weighs about 100-110 pounds per cubic foot, you would need approximately 15,000-16,500 pounds of pea gravel, which translates to about 7.5-8.25 tons.
How many feet does a 50 lb bag of gravel cover 2 inches deep?
Depends on what depth you want to spread the gravel at. This answer depends on knowing the cubic capacity of 50 lbs. of gravel.
How much gravel do you need to cover an 18 foot circle 4 inches deep?

Gravel averages 100 pounds per cubic foot or 20 cubic feet per ton. That's depth x width x length. So if you want to cover something 6 inches deep, you can cover 40 square feet of surface.
How many sq ft will 7 yards of gravel cover?
That depends on the depth of gravel. I am going to assume 3 inches of gravel. One 'yard' really means a cubic yard in this context, which is volume. V = Area of base x depth 7 = (A/9)(3/36) ---- A = 7(12)(9) = 756 sq ft
How much gravel you need to cover 150 square foot?
Depends on depth of gravel you plan to put down. For each 1 inch depth: Estimate gravel having a density of 2.7. 150 x 1/12 x 62.4 x 2.7 = 2106 pounds (slightly more than 1 ton) so if you want 3 inches of gravel you need about 3 tons of gravel
