How many cubic feet in 7 yards of dirt?
A yard is 3x3x3 = 27 cubic feet, so 7 yards is 7x27=189 cubic feet
How large of an area is 75 cubic yards?
Based on the category I am assuming we are takling dirt or mulch. 75 yds x 27 cuft (there is 27 cuft per 1 cuyd) = 2,025 cubic feet of material - 1 foot thick would be 2,025 sqft. - 6 inches thick would be 4,050 sqft. - 3 inches thick would be 8,100 sqft.
How many yards of fill dirt in area 25x40x4 inches thick?
You find the square footage of the total area....40 X 60=2400 square feet. Then convert that to cubic yards by dividing by 27....(27 cubic feet per cubic yard) 2400 divided by 27= 85.1 cu. yards To raise the area by one foot, this would be the end of the calculation. If you were to only want to raise an area by 4 inches lets say....then you would multiply 85.1 by .33 or one third of a foot. (for 6 inches you would multiply by .50 or 1/2 foot) NOW, you have to take into account compaction or loss. When figuring concrete, allow up to 10%. When figuring dirt (depending on how sandy etc.) rule of thumb is to allow UP TO 1/3 for compaction. In your question above, allow for 1/3 and you would need another 28 yards (cu. yards). This would figure as 85.1 X.33 and would equal roughly another 28 yards. So, the total needed would be 85 cu. yds (85 rounded) PLUS 28 .....or a total of 113 cu. yards.
How many cubic yards of dirt in 1 acre of land?
This is the worth math I've ever seen! 1 acre = 43,560 SF, take the square root of 43,560 to give you the base numbers of the acre = 208.71 feet for both the height and width of an acre to get square feet of an acre. Divide 208.71 / 3 = 69.57 yards for the height and width of the acre. Multiply 69.57 x 69.57 = 4,840 square yards in an acre. A cubic yard is simply 4,840 square yards dug down 3 feet or one yard. So one acre has 4,840 cubic yards of dirt if you only dig down 3 feet. If you dig down 6 feet that doubles and so on. One acre would have 48,400 cubic yards of dirt if you dug down 30 feet or 10 yards. Using a one cubic yard example if you removed one cubic yard of dirt from an acre you would have 4,480 cubic yards of dirt, and one cubic yard of dirt weighs approximately 1.3 tons so once cubic acre weighs 1.3 x 4,840 acres = 6,292 tons.

A cubic yard is a measurement of volume.60 (cubic) yards of dirt is the equivalent of 1,620 cubic feet of dirt.One cubic yard is measured as an amount that is 3 feet wide x 3 feet long x 3 feet high, or 27 cubic feet.60 cubic yards equals 27 cubic feet x 60, which equals 1,620 cubic feet.If you spread 60 cubic yards of dirt one foot thick you'd have an area of 1,620 square feet.If you spread this dirt 6 inches thick you'd have an area of 3,240 square feet.
