Formula:
The formula to calculate cubic yards is:
Cubic Yards = (Length × Width × Depth) / 27
Where:
- Length: The length of the area (in feet).
- Width: The width of the area (in feet).
- Depth: The depth of the material (in feet).
Alternatively, if the depth is measured in inches:
Cubic Yards = (Length (feet) × Width (feet) × Depth (inches)) / 324
This is because 1 cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet, and 1 foot equals 12 inches (so 27 * 12 = 324 when depth is in inches).
