How To Calculate Cubic Feet?

Step 1

Measure the length, width, and height in feet

Step 2

Multiply length × width × height

Step 3

Use the formula: cubic feet = L × W × H

Step 4

If measurements are in inches, divide each by 12 first

Step 5

If measurements are in yards, multiply each by 3 first

Step 6

For irregular shapes, break the object into smaller rectangular sections and add the cubic feet of each section

Step 7

For cylinders, use the formula: cubic feet = π × radius² × height, with all measurements in feet

Step 8

For spheres, use the formula: cubic feet = 4/3 × π × radius³, with the radius in feet

Step 9

For cones, use the formula: cubic feet = 1/3 × π × radius² × height, with all measurements in feet
