I assumed here that you wanted a wall six inches thick...the answer is "more bags than you want to deal with." Specifically, at least 125 80-pound bags. The formula is: first, determine the volume of the item by multiplying the height (3 feet) by the length (50 feet) by the thickness (0.5 feet). This gives you 75 cubic feet. If the wall's thinner or thicker, of course this is going to change. Next, divide this by the number of cubic feet in a bag-- 0.30 cf per 40 pound bag 0.45 cf per 60 pound bag 0.60 cf per 80 pound bag This gives us our total bags...125 80-pound, 167 60-pound or 250 40-pound. Then add 10 percent more, just in case. This is the time I'd start thinking of other things to make from concrete, so I could order five yards of it. Five yards of premixed concrete will be cheaper than the three yards of bagged concrete you'll need, and you can't mix concrete fast enough to pour something this big.
162. Comparison Of Quantities Of Materials - The mixture of concrete used for this class of work is often 1 part Portland cement, 3 parts sand, and 6 parts stone. The quantities of materials required for one yard of concrete (www. books.google.com) ("Cement and Concrete") 495. The concrete was one part Portland Cement; three parts sand; three parts gravel and three parts broken stone. (www.books.google.com) ("Cement and Concrete")

There are many types of materials engineers use to build walls. Three possible construction materials are wood, brick, and concrete.
Concrete is an aggregate (like sand, crushed rock or the like), water and (usually Portland) cement plus a little bit of a couple or three other other chemicals to adjust the consistency of the final product. Basically we just use sand, water and cement to mix up this familiar construction material. A link to the Wikipedia article is provided.
Premixed concrete and cement is usually ordered in quantities referred to as yards. A yard is basically a cubic yard of volume, a three dimensional square box that is 3' x 3' x 3', or 27 square feet. If an area to be poured requires the coverage of 27 square feet with a thickness of 4", then the amount of concrete required would be 1/3 yard.

Concrete is composed of water, cement and sand. It has three constituents. Concrete is mixed as a wet mixture, poured into place and allowed to harden and dry.

Starting with the cement flooring it takes about two days, and from there it can be two to three more days depending on what design you chose for your garage.
There should be three quarters of a pound of sand. If the cement is reinforced then add 25 percent more.

Concrete is probably the most important building material today and is used as an alternative for brick/wood since the Roman & Egyptian times. It is composed of cement,stone[gravel], sand and water which is a key ingredient that hardens the concrete. When reinforced with steel bars it is even more useful.
Road gravel or base material, source of agricultural lime, concrete and cement ingredient.
