Question:
How do I convert square feet to cubic feet? If I have 2000 square feet then how many cubic feet do I have?

Hi Jenny,

"Square feet" are used to measure area and "cubic feet" are used to measure volume. These are quite different concepts and there is no way to change one into the other. You can convert cubic feet to gallons, (one gallon is approximately 0.1336 cubic feet) or square feet to acres (one acre is 43,560 square feet) but not square feet to cubic feet.

I hope this helps,
Harley
