I'm guessing it's a 6 foot by 8 foot patio (but 6 inches, not feet deep). {Note that typically something like a patio may only use 4 inch depth of concrete}. In the case of 6 inches, it should be specified as 6'x8'x6". A yard of concrete has a volume of 1 cubic yard, which is 3x3x3 = 27 cubic feet.

For the patio depth of 6 inches converts to 0.5 feet, so we have 6 ft x 8 ft x 0.5 ft = 24 ft³. Take 24/27 = 8/9 or 0.8889 cubic yards [0.8889 yards of concrete].

If you have a 450 sq ft patio how many yards of concrete?

To find out how many yards of concrete you need for your 450 sq ft patio, you would first need to determine the thickness of the concrete you plan to pour. Let's assume a standard 4-inch thickness. One cubic yard of concrete would cover 81 square feet at a 4-inch depth. So for a 450 sq ft patio at 4 inches thick, you would need approximately 5.56 cubic yards of concrete.
