No, a cubic yard of soil and a cubic yard of mulch have different densities, so they do not occupy the same volume. Mulch is lighter and fluffier than soil, so a cubic yard of mulch will take up more space than a cubic yard of soil.
To convert cubic feet to cubic yards, divide by 27. If each bag is 2 cubic feet, then 1 cubic yard is equivalent to 13.5 bags of mulch (27 cubic feet รท 2 cubic feet per bag). Therefore, 6 cubic yards are equivalent to 81 bags of mulch (6 cubic yards * 13.5 bags per cubic yard).
There are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard.
A cubic foot is something that measures 1 foot x 1 foot x 1 foot - like a three dimensional cube (thus, cubic). If we assume this is for mulch or something similar, you will be laying it on a two-dimensional surface. First, you must decide the thickness you would like to apply. Let's say you would like your mulch 3 inches deep. Since there are twelve inches to the foot, your cube will give you four square feet of mulch. (Think of cutting your cube into 3 inch layers and then laying out each layer). A square yard will have 9 square feet (3 feet wide by 3 feet long). So... two cubic feet of mulch will fall short of your required depth by a little. Gardening is not so picky as math, so you decide, do you want more or less... Hope this helps!
There are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard. So, if you have a yard of granite, you would have 27 cubic feet of granite.
When it comes to mulch or concrete, a so-called "yard"actually means a "cubic yard".1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet2 cubic yards = 54 cubic feet...6 cubic yards = 162 cubic feet ( = 81 bags )
One cubic yard of mulch will cover approximately 160 square feet at a depth of 2". This rule also applies to hardwood bark mulch, hardwood bark fines, and double and tripled shredded mulch varieties.

1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet, thus 1 cubic feet = 1/27 cubic yards and 2 cubic feet = 2/27 cubic yards (1 bag of mulch) Landscapers speak in yards of mulch needed for a garden. They are referring to cubic yards. A bag of mulch is 2 cubic feet, so you would need 13.5 bags of mulch to equal 1 cubic yard (yard of mulch)
1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet 4 cubic yards = 108 cubic feet Since each bag contains 2 cubic feet of mulch, the required number of bags is 108/2 which is 54
It depends on how thick the mulch is applied. For example, if applied at an average depth of two inches, the cubic yard of mulch will cover 162 square feet. If applied at an average depth of four inches, half that area or 81 square feet, etc.
No, a cubic yard of soil and a cubic yard of mulch have different densities, so they do not occupy the same volume. Mulch is lighter and fluffier than soil, so a cubic yard of mulch will take up more space than a cubic yard of soil.
One cubic yard of mulch will cover approximately 160 square feet at 2" deep, so you would need approximately two cubic yards of mulch to cover 271 square feet at 2" deep.
It depends on how much moisture is in the mulch
1 cubic yard will cover ~90 sq feet
To convert cubic feet to cubic yards, divide by 27. If each bag is 2 cubic feet, then 1 cubic yard is equivalent to 13.5 bags of mulch (27 cubic feet รท 2 cubic feet per bag). Therefore, 6 cubic yards are equivalent to 81 bags of mulch (6 cubic yards * 13.5 bags per cubic yard).
To solve this convert all measurement to a yard or square yard basis: 3 inches is 0.083333333333 yard and 1500 square feet = 1500/9 = 166.6666666666667 square yards Thus the amount of mulch you need is 166.6666666666667*0.083333333333= 13.88888888883333 cubic yards. so you need to purchase 14 cubic yards of mulch for the job.
