cubed root of 7000 is about 19. So picture a volume of 19ft x 19ft x 19ft.

OK we have sq feet but we need Cubic feet, so all we need to do is multiply sq feet times the ceiling height & that will give us cubic feet.. assuming most homes have 8' ceilings it would look like 2500 X 8=20,000 cubic feet in a 2500 sq ft home. divide 20,000 by 4000 cubic ft per can & you will need 5 cans.. hope that helps
A litre is 10cm x 10cm x 10cm so it's 0.001 cubic metres. That means 100L will be 0.1 cubic metres. That's the same as 6102 cubic inches or 3.53 cubic feet. Another way to look at this is: 100L = 100*1000mL. 1mL = 1cc (cubic centimeter). Thus, 100L = 100*1000cc = 100 cubic decimeter = 0.1 cubic meter. 1in = 2.54cm. 1 cubic inch = 2.54^3 cc. So 100L = 10^5 / 2.54^3 cubic inches = 6102.37 cubic in. 1 cubic feet = 12^3 cubic inch. Therefore, 100L = 6102.37/12^3 cubic feet = 3.53147 cubic ft.
10.6 cubic yards = 1.06 x 101yards3
1000 square feet could look like a narrow road, 10 feet wide and 100 feet long. It could be a room 25 feet by 40 feet. It could be a piece of fabric 4 feet wide (48 inches) and 250 feet long.
The volume of that space you've described is (8-ft x 4-ft x 1/2-ft) = 16 cubic feet.1 cubic yard = 27 cubic ft, so 16 cubic ft = about 0.6 cubic yard. (rounded)When you start pouring the topsoil in, the garden will probably look full long beforeyou reach 16 cubic feet. That's because a lot of air gets mixed in with it in the processof pouring. So if you quit as soon as the plot looks full, it won't be too many days beforeit settles and sinks. You have to work it while pouring to get some of the air out, andthen pour until it looks like it's heaped too high, to allow for settling later. Rememberthe math: 16 cubic feet is what you want to fill.
