Minimum 8 inches, ideally 12 inches, so they can establish a good root system. If you are growing root vegetables, I would start with 12 inches of loose soil.
My garden is just rocks and sand. Your garden has rich, deep earth and all kinds of plants. I remove all the soil from your garden and spread it over my desert. See how my garden has benefited?

The topsoil in a typical soil profile is usually around 2 to 8 inches deep.

18 cubic feet of topsoil Bob Richardson Orlando, FL 18 Cubic Feet, assuming the question meant 12" deep, which is more likely than 12 "feet" deep
You would need 31.88 cubic yards of topsoil to cover 855 sq feet at 6 inches deep.
You already have a square yard of topsoil, so how does 20 inches of depth get you the volume of topsoil? There are 36 inches in a yard, and you have 20 inches of topsoil depth that's 20/36ths of a yard of topsoil depth. That's 0.555... or about 0.56 yards. The volume of topsoil is 1 yard by 1 yard by 0.56 yards, or about 0.56 cubic yards of topsoil.
1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet6 inches = 1/2 footVolume = (45-ft x 30-ft x 1/2-ft) = 675 cubic feet = 25 cubic yards.
Why hasn't anybody answered shitheads!!!!
Well, isn't that a happy little question! To find the volume of topsoil used, we first need to convert the depth from inches to yards. Since 1 yard is equal to 36 inches, 3 inches is 3/36 = 1/12 yards. Then, we multiply the area of the garden by the depth of the topsoil to find the volume. So, 24 yards (area) multiplied by 1/12 yards (depth) equals 2 cubic yards of topsoil used. Happy gardening!
