Mathematically, a yard is a measure of length, has only one dimension and thus has no volume which has three dimensions; so no matter how many of them you have you will never get a volume of 15 cu ft.

If you are using "yard" in the slang, builders' way to represent cubic yards, then:

1 yd = 3 ft

1 cu yd = 1 yd x 1 yd x 1 yd

= 3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft

= 27 cu ft

⇒ 15 cu ft = 15 ÷ 27 cu yd

= 5/9 cu yd

≈ 0.56 cu yd

How many yards of cement for a 55 x 15 x 6 slab?

It would be helpful to have units of measurement in the equation. However, pouring a slab I'll presume your measurements are feet x feet x inches. The volume of this slab is 55 x 15 x 0.5 (6 inches is 0.5 ft) = 412.5 cubic feet 1 yard of cement (more likely concrete as a cement slab will crumble under load) is equal to 27 cu.ft. So, 412.5 cu.ft. needed / 27 cu. ft. / cu. yd. = 15.2777...cu. yards. you will need to order 15.27777...cu. yards, as a yard isn't sold in this decimal you will need to order 15 1/2 yards of concrete to pour your slab.
