Well, you make a sidewalk from concrete, not just cement. Concrete consists of cement, sand, gravel and water. You will need 5.5 cubic feet of concrete. A standard sidewalk grade of concrete would be 1 part cement, 2 parts sand, 3 parts gravel- so the sidewalk needs 0.91 cu ft of cement- about 87 pounds worth- plus sand and gravel. If you want to buy the premixed bags of concrete (like Sacrete), you will need about 17 of the 40 pounds bags. And you did not ask, but 3 inches is kind of skinny- I would go for at least a 4 inch thick sidewalk.
