Topsoil by the yard?

My yard needs 3 inches of topsoil added. The size of my yard is 100 feet x 100 feet. How many yards of dirt do I order?

Answer #1

volume = length x width x height

1 foot = 1/3 yard 100 feet = 33 1/3 yards

1 inch = 1/36 yards 3 inches = 1/12

33 1/3 x 33 1/3 x 1/12 = 92 16/27 or 92.59 cubic yards
