Default Cubic foot???????????

Good morning,

I was going to buy some Cypress mulch and put it in my beds.
The bags contains 2 cubic feet of mulch.
Once I measure the width and length of my beds, how do I determine how
much mulch I will need for a 2 inch layer?


And people thought those story problems in math class had absolutely no
value...

A cubic foot is 12" x 12" x 12", right? So you can get 6 - 2" layers out of
a cubic foot.

So each bag will give you 2 x 6 = 12 square feet of coverage at 2" deep.
