There is no way to compare these two things. Square footage is a measure of area, while cubic feet is a measure of volume.
1 Cubic Meter is 35.3147 Cubic Feet. Remember, a meter is about 36 inches.
48*40*52= 99840 cubic inches 99840*3 = 299520 cubic inches 299520 cubic inch = 173.33333333 cubic feet
*UPDATE*Does it even matter?*UPDATE*None, it can only be cubic feet or cubic inches
An area is an area, not a volume. 20 by 26 = 520 square feet
You say 12'x12 `—> that ' is the sign for feet. so if the patio is 12 feet by 12 feet then it is 144 square feet. You don't say what measurement the "4 thick" is, but I presume it is inches. 4 inches is 1/3 of a foot, so divide the square footage by 3 and that will give you the cubic footage - if the patio is 12 feet by 12 feet and 4 inches thick then the cubic footage is 48.
0. 50 feet by 2 inches is a 2d measure of area. An area cannot be measured in cubic feet, which is a measure for volumes.
Cubic feet is a measure of volume while square feet is a measure of area. They do not directly convert.
To convert inches to feet, divide the inches by 12. So, 3 inches is equal to 0.25 feet. To find the cubic feet of the area, multiply the length (476 feet) by the width (0.25 feet) and the result will give you the area in cubic feet.
You are asking for square footage, but you are giving enough information for a measure of volume in cubic inches. Given a regular rectangular shape, 48 inches by 42 inches would give you 2016 square inches. Multiplying this by 38 inches would give you 76,608 cubic inches.
using those dimensions, 38.89 cubic feet not square feet
Cubic footage (or volume) is simply the length x width x thickness. 4 inches x 1ft/12 inches = 0.333 ft Therefore, the driveways volume is: 30ft x 15ft x 0.333ft = 149.85 cubic feet, or better to just say 150 cubic feet.
