If a volume is measured in cubic feet but the answer is required in cubic inches then a conversion process is needed.
1 foot = 12 inches
1 sq ft = 12 x 12 = 144 sq inches
1 cu ft = 12 x 12 x 12 = 1728 cu inches.
So, to convert cubic feet to cubic inches, multiply the answer by 1728.
Conversely, to convert cubic inches to cubic feet, divide the answer by 1728.

The number 1728 is used when converting cubic inches to cubic feet. Since there are 12 inches in a foot (12 x 12 x 12 = 1728), this conversion accounts for the volume in three dimensions when moving from cubic inches to cubic feet.
Cubic feet is a measure of volume while square feet is a measure of area. They do not directly convert.
There are 1,728 cubic inches in a cubic foot, so 150 cubic inches would be equivalent to 0.087 cubic feet.
To convert 85.43 cubic feet to cubic inches, you would multiply by 1728 (since 1 cubic foot is equal to 1728 cubic inches). So, 85.43 cubic feet is equal to 85.43 x 1728 = 147,456.24 cubic inches.
1 foot = 12 inch 1 cubic foot = 12 x 12 x 12 cubic inch = 1728 cubic inch 231 cubic inch = 231/1728 cubic feet = 0.134 cubic feet
To convert cubic inches to cubic feet for a round tree, you would first calculate the volume of the tree in cubic inches using the formula for the volume of a cylinder (π * (radius)^2 * height). Then, divide the cubic inches by 1,728 (the number of cubic inches in a cubic foot) to get the volume in cubic feet.
