How do you convert sqare feet to cubic feet?

Answer 1

It depends on how thick each square foot is!

Actually, a square foot isn't "thick" at all, so you could theoretically stack up an infinite number of them and still not reach the one foot high you would need to make a cubic foot.

(cubic feet) = (square feet) × (height in feet)

Answer 2

The formula for Square feet is:

length × width The formula for Cubic feet is:

length × width × height Since we know the Square feet of the garden, we now have the conversion to Cubic feet:

(cubic feet) = (square feet) × (height in feet)

Answer 3

To convert square feet to cubic feet, you must know the height or depth of the space you are measuring. Multiply the square footage by the height in feet to calculate the cubic footage. This is because square feet measure area (length x width) while cubic feet measure volume (length x width x height).

Answer 4

Cubic means a three-dimensional volume. Square means a two-dimensional flat area. One cannot be converted to the other.

Answer 5

You can't. Square feet is a measure of area and cubic feet is a measure of volume.

Answer 6

A square foot is a unit of area. A cubic foot is a unit of volume. The two units are therefore incompatible.
