13.5 bags are required.
Nine 3 cubic feet bags equals one cubic yard. There are 27 cubic feet in one cubic yard. 27/3=9
The best unit for measuring mulch for a garden is typically cubic yards. This unit accounts for the volume of mulch needed to cover a certain area. It's important to calculate the square footage of the garden bed and then convert this to cubic yards to determine how much mulch is required.
Typically, a bag of soil contains 0.5 cubic feet. To cover 1.5 cubic yards, you would need 81 bags of soil (1.5 x 27 = 40.5 cubic feet, 40.5 / 0.5 = 81).
Twenty-one .75 cubic foot bags equal 16 cubic feet.
When it comes to mulch or concrete, a so-called "yard"actually means a "cubic yard".1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet2 cubic yards = 54 cubic feet...6 cubic yards = 162 cubic feet ( = 81 bags )
13.5 bags are required.
1 cubic yard is 3x3x3 = 27 cubic feet 49 yards = 49x27 = 1323 cubic feet 1323/2 = 661 bags - that is a lot of bags! Make sure by yards you mean actual cubic yards, not linear yards, in which case you need to know depth and width of mulch as well
1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet 4 cubic yards = 108 cubic feet Since each bag contains 2 cubic feet of mulch, the required number of bags is 108/2 which is 54
1.85 cubic yards...probably 25 bags or so
You need10.8/(the number of cubic feet of sand in each bag) bags.
A bit more then 10.
Well, gee, I think that would be 2 bags. But if you have found a bag that is 2 cubic yards, that is ONE HUGE BAG...Enough to fill the back of a pick-up truck. I think you better look into your phrasing, one cubic yard of mulch will cover 100 square feet, or an area that is 10' x 10'. IMPROVED ANSWER: I think you mean that 1 bag of mulch will cover 2 cubic feet. That's the standard bag sold at Lowes & Home Depot. 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet (3'x3'x3'=27). Therefore 4 cubic yards is equal to 108 cubic feet. You would need 54 bags (108/2=54).
1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet, thus 1 cubic feet = 1/27 cubic yards and 2 cubic feet = 2/27 cubic yards (1 bag of mulch) Landscapers speak in yards of mulch needed for a garden. They are referring to cubic yards. A bag of mulch is 2 cubic feet, so you would need 13.5 bags of mulch to equal 1 cubic yard (yard of mulch)
1.8 Cubic yards of concrete is 48.6 cubic feet. Each 80lb bag of concrete is .6 cubic feet. Therefore, you would need 81 bags. Hope that helps. GEO
