There can be no comparison. A linear yard is a measure of length in 1-dimensional space while a cubic yard is a measure of volume in 3-dimensional space. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at conversion from one to the other is fundamentally flawed.
None, since there can be no conversion.
A linear yard is a measure of length in 1-dimensional space while a square yard is a measure of area in 2-dimensional space. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at conversion from one to the other is fundamentally flawed.
No, the linear yard is a unit of length, measuring one yard in a straight line. Area, on the other hand, is a measure of two-dimensional space.

Does a yard stick or a tape measure measure sq. ft. or is there a special measuring tool?
A yard stick or a tape measure will measure linear distances: that is lengths in one dimension only. There is no specific tool for measuring area: you need to calculate area from the linear measures using various geometric formulae.
How many inches are there in a football yard?
There are thirty six inches in any kind of linear yard.
Square feet equals 1 square yard?
There are three feet in a yard. A square yard is one (linear) yard - that is three (linear) feet - in each direction. 3 x 3 makes 9; so a square yard is nine square feet.
How many cubic inches are in a cubic yard?
A cubic yard is a cube that measures one (linear) yard on each edge. There are 36 inches to the (linear) yard. To calculate the volume of a cube, raise the length of its edge to the power of three. (In other words, V = L cubed.) The answer is: 46656
How many linear feet are in a cubic yard?
linear feet and cubic yards (areas) are different units of measurement and can not be equated.
How many 12 inch squares in a yard?
There is no answer. A square is area. A yard is linear.
Convert linear yards to square yards?
A linear yard is a unit of length. A square yard is a unit of area. The two units are therefore incompatible.
How many square feet in one linear yard?
None.Square feet are a measure of area;Linear yards are a measure of lengthand have no width.Area is length times widtharea_of_linear_yard = 1 linear yard x 0 linear yard= 0 square yards= 0 square feet
How can you convert onE yard to a linear yard?
A length of 1 yard is 1 linear yard!
80 linear feet equals how many square yards?
This would be an unanswerable question as 80 linear feet is a linear unit and square yards is a measure of area. Now if the yard is 80 linear feet by 80 linear feet , that would be an area of 6400 square feet. Since 9 square feet occupy a square yard, that would be an area of 711 1/3 square yards. But, 80 linear feet is only a measure in one dimension and area is a two dimensional measure
What are 27000 sq feet in linear yards?
A square foot is a unit of area. A linear yard is a unit of length. The two units are therefore incompatible.
How do you convert sq yard to linear feet?
You do not. A square yard is a measure of area. A linear foot, as the name suggests, is a measure of distance. The two measure different things and it makes no sense to try to convert from one to the other.
How many linear feet in one linear yard?
3 feet equals 1 yard
How do you Convert linear yard to square feet?
A square yard is a unit of area. A linear foot is a unit of distance. The two units are therefore incompatible.As long as you know the width you can convert square yards to linear feet. The formula I use is this... Linear feet = ((36SY)/w)/3. SY= square yards, w=width in inches. Many say you cannot convert a measyre of area to a measure of length, but as long as you know the width you can.
What is the difference between yard and linear yard?
its the same
How many yards in a cubic yard?
There are no yards in a cubic yard, because a yard is a linear unit of distance, whereas a cubic yard is a spacial unit of volume. A cubic yard is the volume occupied by a cube that measures one yard -- that's one linear yard -- on each edge. Since a linear yard equals three linear feet, a cubic yard is equal to 3 x 3 x 3 = 27 cubic feet.
Does a yard stick or a tape measure measure sq. ft. or is there a special measuring tool?
