You cannot make a direct conversion. You need to specify how deep you want the gravel to be in your area that needs covering.
A measurement in square feet is a measurement of area, while a measurement in cubic yards is a measurement of volume. The two units are, therefore, incompatible.You can, however, convert between square feet and square yards, or cubic feet and cubic yards.
Easy to do. Multiply cubic yards by 27 to get cubic feet.
Divide by 27 to convert cubic feet to cubic yards= 380/27 yards
Converting cubic yards to yards doesn't make sense. Cubic yards measure volume, and yards measure distance.
This conversion would be impossible. As a general rule, converting from like terms to like terms is the only way one unit of measurement can be converted into another form. In the example from the question: Convert 1 yd3 to 1 ft2 Three separate measurements (length, width and height) are to be converted into two separate measurements (length and width, or length and height, or width and height) In each case, there would be a measurement left out from the original unit of measurement (length, width or height, depending on which two were converted). If, however, the question were proposed "How to convert square yards to square feet" or "How to convert cubic yards to cubic feet", then both units of measurement would be the same (i.e. length and width, or length width and height) Because of the ambiguity of the question, the conversion factors for square yards to square feet and cubic yards to cubic feet will be given: Square yards to square feet conversion: 1 yd2 = 9 ft2 Square feet to square yards conversion: 1 ft2 = .111 yd2 Cubic yards to cubic feet conversion: 1 yd3 = 27 ft3 Cubic feet to cubic yards conversion: 1 ft3 = .037037 yd3

744 Square Feet
The amount of gravel needed to cover 252 square feet depends on how thick (that is, deep) you want the gravel. If you want the gravel to be 3 inches thick... Convert the measurement to the same units. We'll use feet. 3 inches = 1/4 foot Multiply the thickness times the area to get volume in cubic measure. 1/4 feet x 252 feet = 63 cubic feet Gravel in the US is usually sold by the cubic yard, which is 27 cubic feet Thus, 63/27 = 2 1/3 cubic yards 2 1/3 cubic yards of gravel will cover 252 square feet of area to a dept of 3 inches.
No, because they are used to measure different things. Cubic yards is used to measure volume and square meters is used to measure area.
9.26 cubic yards for every inch of depth.
92.593 cubic yards for every inch deep.
16.36 cubic yards.
None. "Cubic yard" is a unit of volume, or space. "Square yard" is a unit of area. They measure different things, with different physical dimensions, and they can't convert to each other. If volume and area could convert to each other, then you'd be able to figure out how many acres of gas you put in the car last week, and how many gallons of carpet it'll take to do the upstairs hallway.
1 (cubic yard) = 46 656 cubic inchesIf the depth is 2 inches then the area it will cover is 46656/2 square inches = 23,328 square inches. Convert 23,328 square inches to square yards23 328 (square inches) = 18 square yards
You will need about 3.7 cubic yards (around 4.75 tons) of gravel.
You'll need about 28.704 cubic yards (37 tons) of gravel.
Plan on about 2.2 cubic yards (2.8 tons) of gravel.
