16 x 2/3 = 10 2/3
you need 3,072 cubic feet of soil
To cover 6 acres with two feet of soil requires 3227 cubic yards of soil. This would require about 1100 3 yard dump truck trips.
To calculate the amount of soil needed, you multiply the area by the desired depth. In this case, you have 9300 square feet and want a depth of 12 inches. Convert the depth to feet (12 inches = 1 foot) and multiply: 9300 square feet x 1 foot = 9300 cubic feet of soil. So, you need 9300 cubic feet of soil to cover the area with a depth of 12 inches.
To cover 144 sq ft with soil to a depth of 6 inches, you would need 72 cubic feet of soil. This can be calculated by multiplying the area (144 sq ft) by the desired depth (6/12 ft) to get the volume in cubic feet.
1 [cubic] yard = 27 cubic feet18 inches = 1.5 feetVolume of the garden = (8 x 12 x 1.5) = 144 cubic feet = (144/27) = (5 and 1/3) cubic yards
To cover that area to that depth - you would need just under 8 cubic yards of soil.
None but the cubic capacity of the hole is 16 cubic inches
8 inches = 2/3 foot27 cubic feet = 1 cubic yardVolume = 12 x 24 x 2/3 = 192 cubic feet = 71/9 cubic yards
8 inches = 2/3 ft 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic ft Volume = (32 x 2/3) cubic ft = 211/3 cubic ft = 0.79 cubic yard
First you need to understand that the "yard" of material is really a cubic yard (3 x 3 x 3) or 27 cubic feet. Each cubic foot is 12 inches by 12 inches by 12 inches. you begin by multiplying the 15 foot width by the 55 foot length. (15 x 55 = 825) If you assume that you have a 12 inch high fill then all you have to do is divide 825 by 1/4(3 inches) to get the number of cubic feet of top soil. divide again by 27 to get the number of cubic yards.
70 * 1.5 = 105ft^3 you need 105 cubic feet of soil. That is close to 4 cubic yards, so you'll need a dump truck to drop it off.
You will need 20,250 bags of soil.That's based on a typical bag of soil being 1 cubic foot. Going 6 inches deep. However this does not include soil compaction which is at least 25% depending on the density and moisture content in the bagged soil.Without Compaction factored in its just over 16,000 bags.About 600 cubic yardsAbout 40 Full Size Dump Truck Loads
