Worked example
10 ft × 20 ft = 200 sq ft. At 4 inches: 200 × 4 ÷ 12 = 66.67 cu ft, or 2.47 cubic yards. With 10% extra that is 2.72 yd³, or 123 bags of 80 lb mix.
At over 1 cubic yard, compare the cost and labor of bags against a ready-mix delivery.
Assumes standard concrete mix bag yields: 80 lb ≈ 0.60 cu ft, 60 lb ≈ 0.45 cu ft. Check the yield on your bag. 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet.
