How It Calculates the Results

The calculator multiplies the length, width, and depth to get the volume in cubic feet. It then converts this volume into cubic yards by dividing by 27, since there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard. Finally, the calculator multiplies the number of cubic yards by the price per cubic yard to get the total cost.
