2 divided by 36 = 18 x 9 = 162 square feet or an area 27 feet by 6 feet.

I work for a landscape company in Michigan... and I do this sort of conversion all the time. So much so, I've got a cheat sheet on my wall. About 162sq ft. remember it really depends on how fine the gravel is, and how accurate the depth is.

I would say as a range... 145-175 sq feet.

Good luck-

About 175 square feet, give or take a couple square depending on the size gravel.
