One cubic yard = 1 yard x 1 yard x 1 yard
OR
36 feet x 36 feet x 36 feet = 46,656 CUBIC feet.
It would not make sense to measure it in square feet because square feet is
2-dimensional and cubic yards is 3-dimensional.
There can be an infinite amount of square feet in one cubic yard, since square refers to the second dimension, and not the third, like cube does. However, there are 27 cubic feet in one cubic yard.
This cannot be properly calculated because square feet is a measure of area while cubic yards is a measure of volume.
This is not a valid conversion. Cubic units is a measure of volume while square units is a measure of area.
First you have to get your units of measure straight. There aren't any square feet in a cubic yard, square feet is a 2 dimensional measurement while cubic yard is a 3 dimensional. If you meant to say how many cubic feet in a cubic yard, that's easy. A yard is 3 feet long, a cubic yard is 3 ft X 3 ft X 3 ft which is 27 cubic feet. If you want to know how many square feet of floor a cubic yard of cement will cover you have to decide how thick. If you want it 4", which is typical, just multiply the 27 cubic feet by 3 because 4" goes into 1 ft 3 times.
I hope this helps clear your question up.
not possible to convert a volume measure to an area measure!!
None. Square yard is a flat area measurement. Cubic feet measure volume. Without a third dimension, you can have no volume.
One square yard is 3 ft by 3 ft, or 9 square feet.
One square yard that is 3 ft thick would be 3 ft by 3 ft by 3 ft, or 27 cubic feet.
One square yard that is 1 ft thick would be 3 ft by 3 ft by 1 ft, or 9 cubic ft.
One square yard that is 4 inches thick (typical for concrete) would be 3 ft by 3 ft by 1/3 ft, or 3 cubic ft.

How many square ft in a cubic yard?
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.
How many cubic yards is 7 x 14 x 4ft?
7 feet by 14 feet = 98 square feet 98 square feet by 4 feet = 392 cubic feet There are 9 square feet in a square yard, and there are 29 cubic feet in a cubic yard.... so 392 cubic feet = 14.519 cubic yards

Who do you convert square feet into cubic yards?
Square feet measure a 2-dimensional object. Cubic yards measure a 3-dimensional object. Converting a 2-d object to a 3-d one can't be done. However, if you meant to ask for cubic feet to cubic yards, then: divide by 27. The 27 comes from: 1 yard = 3 feet -> 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet. If you meant to ask for square feet to square yards, then: divide by 9. 1 yard = 3 feet -> 1 square yard = 9 square feet.

None. A cubic yard equals 9 cubic feet. Square feet is a measure of area, while cubic feet is a measure of volume.
How many cubic yards of mulch will you need to cover 1500 square feet 3 inches thick?
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.
