How many squre ft will 1 cu yd cover 3 inch thick?

One cubic yard is equivalent to 27 cubic feet. To determine how many square feet it will cover at a thickness of 3 inches, convert inches to feet (3 inches = 0.25 feet). Then, divide the volume (27 cubic feet) by the thickness (0.25 feet): 27 ÷ 0.25 = 108 square feet. Thus, 1 cubic yard will cover 108 square feet at a thickness of 3 inches.
