The answer will depend on how thick you want the coverage to be. If you want:
1. Two Inches = 18 square yards
2. Three Inches = 12 Square yards
3. Four Inches = 9 square yards
See the pattern here? If the dirt was a Cube of 3ft x 3ft x 3ft, then you divide 36" by the thickness of coverage in inches. The answer is the number of Square Yards of coverage.

What is the density of wood chips?
The bulk density of wood chips varies from about 550 Ibs/cu yd for new wood chips to 750 Ibs/cu yd for recycled wood chips.
Which weighs more a yard of dry sand or a yard of dry gravel?
A yard of dry sand typically weighs more than a yard of dry gravel. Sand particles are smaller and more densely packed, while gravel consists of larger particles with more empty space between them, leading to gravel being less dense overall.
How much does a yd of topsoil weigh?

pH Testing Is Crucial For Determining Soil Acidity?
Whether you are a professional turf specialist, or a greenthumb attempting to determine the pH level of your soil, pH testing will let you know the acididty or alkalinity of your soil. This is crucial to growing a thriving garden or lawn, as soils that test in the extreme zones of the pH test will be hampered, and will fail to thrive. The pH, or potential hydrogen ions indicates the amount of lime, or calcium, in your soil. Some plants, such as clematis, prefer a high, or alkaline pH, showing higher lime content. Others, such as rhododendron and heathers cannot tolerate lime in the soil, and so thrive in a lower, or more acidic soil pH. Testing Your Soil pH Generally, in moist climates the soil pH is lower, or more acidic, while drier climates tend to have higher pH, or more calcium in the soil. If your pH test reads lower than 7.0, your soil is acidic. Higher than 7.0 means it is alkaline. You can buy an inexpensive test kit at most home and garden centers, or even hardware stores. These pH testing kits generally include a test tube, some testing solution, and a color chart. Place a soil sample in the test tube, add a few drops of test solution, shake it up, and let it sit for an hour or so. The solution/soil mixture will change color according to the pH level. Raising and Lowering Your Soil pH It is easier to make soils more alkaline than acidic, generally speaking. Adding elements such as hardwood ash, bone meal, crushed marble, or oyster shells will help raise the soil pH to a more alkaline state. You can also add hydrated lime to your soil, which should bring it up about 1.0 on the scale. Correcting an overly acid soil will take some time, so you will want to make gradual increases over a year’s period or more--the same for lowering soil pH as well. You can use sulfur to lower your soil’s pH to a more acidic state, following safety guidelines closely to prevent harmful contact or overdosing your soil. Use 1.2 ounces/square yd. of ground rock sulfur for sandy soils, and 3.6 ounces/square yd. for all other soil types. Thoroughly mix the sulfur into the soil prior to planting, and do periodic pH testing to make sure you’ve done it right!
How much yds of sand is needed to cover 4500square ft by 1 inch?
Assuming you mean the colloquial (builder's) yard for cubic yard: 36 in = 1 yd 3 ft = 1 yd ⇒ 3 ft x 3 ft = 1 yd x 1 yd ⇒ 9 sq ft = 1 sq yd ⇒ 4500 sq ft x 1 in = (4500 ÷ 9) sq yd x (1 ÷ 36) yd = 138/9 cu yd ≈ 13.89 cu yd
How much dirt would you need to cover 2000 sq ft 1 inch thick?
(2000 sq. ft.) X (1 in.) X (1 ft. / 12 in.) = 167 cu. ft.(167 cu. ft.) X (1 cu. yd. / 27 cu. ft.) = 6.2 cu. yd.Full size pickup truck will hold 2 to 3 cu. yd.Tandem axle box truck will hold 10 cu. yd.
How much concrete is there in a 6 inch block?

How many yards is 15 cu feet?
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 ft1 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 much does 8 yards of dirt cover?
Depends on how deep you want the soil to be... 4" is a pretty good soil depth (in my opinion)... So, converting from cubic yards to cubic feet... 8 cu.yds x 27 ft/cu. yd = 256 cu. ft We'll spread the dirt 4" (0.33') 256 cu.ft/ 0.33 ft = 775.75 sq. ft ============================================================ Hope this helps!!

How many yards is in 1 foot deep by 200ft. x 200 ft.?
Assuming by "yard" you mean a "builder's" yard = 1 cubic yard: 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. 1ft x 200 ft x 200 ft = 40000 cu ft → 40000 cu ft = 40000 ÷ 27 cu yd = 1481 13/27 cu yd ≈ 1481.5 cu yd.

What is the volume of a box that measures 1 yard by 2 feet by 1.5 feet in cubic feet and cubic metres?
The volume of the box is 36 * 24 * 18 = 15552 cubic inches. ---------------------------------------------- 1 ft = 1/3 yd → volume = 1 yd × 2 ft × 1.5 ft = 1 yd × (2 × 1/3) yd × (1.5 × 1/3) yd = 1/3 cu yd = 0.333... cu yd ≈ 0.33 cu yd 1 yd = 0.9144 m (exactly)* → 1 cu yd = 1 yd × 1 yd × 1 yd = 0.9144 m × 0.9144 m × 0.9144 m = (0.9144)³ cu m → 1/3 cu yd = 1/3 × (0.9144)³ cu m = 497757069/1953125000 cu m = 0.25485.... cu m ≈ 0.25 cu m * derivation of 1 yd = 0.9144m (exactly): 1 in = 2.54 cm = 0.0254 m (exactly) 1 yd = 36 in = 36 × 0.0254 m = 0.9144 m (exactly) If you are using an approximation for 1 inch in centimetres, then 1 yd ≈ 36 × approximation ÷ 100 metres. eg if 1 in ≈ 2.5 cm, then 1 yd ≈ 36 × 2.5 ÷ 100 m = 0.9 m and volume ≈ 1/3 × (9/10)³ cu m = 243/1000 cu m = 0.243 cu m
