Cubic Meters (m3)
A cubic meter is an SI-derived unit of measurement of volume, which is represented as m3. It is the volume of a cube with measurements of one meter long, one meter wide, and one meter deep. One cubic meter can be written symbolically as 1 cu. m or 1 m3. One cubic meter is equal to 1000 liters, 61023.7441 cubic inches, 35.3 cubic feet, 1.31 cubic yards, 6.29 oil barrels, 264 US fluid gallons, 220 imperial gallons, and 2113.3764 US pints.
From the definition of one cubic meter,
1 cubic meter = 1 m × 1 m × 1 m
Cubic Yards to Cubic Meters
A cubic meter and a cubic yard are the units of measurement of volume. Volume is a mathematical quantity that is used to measure the amount of three-dimensional space that is occupied by a three-dimensional object. The volume of a three-dimensional object varies with its shape, like cubical, cuboidal, cylindrical, conical, etc. The volume of an object is usually measured by using SI-derived units such as cubic meters and liters and different imperial units such as cubic inches, cubic yards, pints, gallons, etc. Generally, while solving some problems, we need to convert units. For example, you are asked to find the volume of a cubical container in liters, and its side length is given in inches. So, after calculating the volume of the container, we have to convert the obtained volume in cubic inches to liters. Before converting one unit to the other, we need to understand the relationship between the units. In this article, we will discuss the conversion of cubic yards to cubic meters.
