Cubic Yards to Cubic Inches

A cubic yard and a cubic inch are the units of measurement of a unit volume. Volume is defined as the measure of space occupied by a three-dimensional object. The volume of a three-dimensional object differs from one shape to the other, as we have different shapes of 3D objects, such as spherical, conical, cylindrical, etc. The volume of a 3D geometric object is expressed quantitatively using SI-derived units like a cubic meter or liter or by using various imperial units like cubic feet, cubic yards, gallons, quarts, etc. The conversion of units aids in mathematical problem-solving by enabling us to follow the units to approach the solution. Now, let us discuss the conversion of cubic yards to cubic inches.

Cubic Yards (yd³)

A cubic yard is an imperial and United States customary unit of measurement of volume, which is represented as yd³. One cubic yard is the volume of a cube that has a length of one yard on each side, i.e., one yard long, one yard wide, and one yard deep. It is represented as 1 cu. yd or 1 yd³. One cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet, 46656 cubic inches, 1.8343 × 10⁻¹⁰ cubic miles, 0.7645549 cubic meters, 764.5549 L, 168.178557 imperial gallons, and 1345.42787 imperial pints.

1 cubic yard = 1 yd × 1 yd × 1 yd

1 cubic yard = 46656 cubic inches

Cubic Inches (in³)

A cubic inch is an imperial and United States customary unit of measurement of volume, which is represented as in³. One cubic inch is the volume of a cube that has a length of one inch on each side, i.e., one inch long, one inch wide, and one inch deep. It is represented as 1 cu. in or 1 in³. One cubic inch is equal to 0.0005787 cubic feet, 2.143347 × 10^-5 cubic inches, 0.00001639 cubic meters, 0.0163870 L, 0.0036047 imperial gallons, and 0.0288372 imperial pints.

1 cubic inch = 1 in × 1 in × 1 in

1 cubic inch = 1/46656 cubic yards ≈ 2.143347 × 10^-5 cubic yards

How to Convert Cubic Yards to Cubic Inches?

The value of 1 cubic yard is equal to 46656 cubic inches. So, to convert cubic yards to cubic inches, we need to multiply the given value by 46656, i.e.,

1 Cubic yard = 46656 cubic inches

n × 1 Cubic yard = n × 46656 cubic inches

Example: Convert 0.015 cubic yards into cubic inches.

Solution: 

We know that,

1 Cubic yard = 46656 cubic inches

So, multiply 0.015 by 46656, i.e., 0.015 cubic yards = 0.015 × 46656 cubic inches.

0.015 cubic yards = 699.84 cubic inches

Thus, the value of 0.015 cubic yards is equal to 699.84 cubic inches.

Solved Examples on yd³ to in³

Example 1: Convert 14 cubic yards into cubic inches.

Solution:

We know that,

1 Cubic yard = 46656 cubic inches

Hence,

14 yd³ = 14 × 46656 in³

14 yd³ = 6,53,184 in³

Therefore, the value of 14 cubic yards is 6,53,184 cubic inches.

Example 2: Convert 0.0023 cubic yards into cubic inches.

Solution:

We know that,

1 Cubic yard = 46656 cubic inches

Hence,

0.0023 yd³ = 0.0023 × 46656 in³

0.0023 yd³ = 107.3088 in³

Therefore, the value of 0.0023 cubic yards is 107.3088 cubic inches.

Example 3: Convert 1.59 cubic inches into cubic yards.

Solution:

We know that,

1 cubic inch = 2.1433 × 10^-5 cubic yards

Hence,

1.59 in³ = 1.59 × 2.1433 × 10^-5 yd³

1.59 in³ = 3.40792 × 10^-5 yd³

Therefore, the value of 1.59 cubic inches is 3.40792 × 10^-5 cubic yards.

Example 3: Convert 213 cubic inches into cubic yards.

Solution:

We know that,

1 cubic inch = 2.1433 × 10^-5 cubic yards

Hence,

213 in³ = 213 × 2.1433 × 10^-5 yd³

213 in³ = 4.57× 10^-3 yd³

Therefore, the value of 1.59 cubic inches is 4.57× 10^-3 cubic yards.
