What is the formula for converting cubic yards to acre feet?

Multiply (acre-feet) by (1,613 and 1/3) to get (cubic yards). 3 acre-feet = 4,840 cubic yards. Multiply (cubic yards) by (0.00062) to get (acre-feet). 24,200 cubic yards = 15 acre-feet

Converting cubic yards to yards doesn't make sense. Cubic yards measure volume, and yards measure distance.


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.


How many cubic yards are in 27 square yards?

How do you calculate square feet to cubic yards of concrete?

I don't think you can convert a cubic dimension into a squared dimension as a cubic dimension applies to volume and a squared dimension applies to area. Length X Width = Area (squared dimension); Length X Width X Depth = Volume (cubic dimension). One square yard = nine square feet; One cubic yard = 27 cubic feet.

What is the Formula for converting cubic feet to cubic yards?

You can't convert two different units into each other. Feet is a measure of length. cubic feet is a measure of volume. However, if you have the dimensions of an object, it's length width and height in feet, then you can use a formula to take the three measurements and get the volume in cubic feet. However, which formula you use depends upon the shape of the object.


After finding th square feet of an area what number would you use to convert the measurment to cubic yards?
