You can convert cubic feet into cubic yards. Both are a measure of volume, but you cannot convert cubic feet into yards. 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet.

Well, first you flatten the cube, then you squash the square...
Just kidding (no, not really).
There are three feet in a yard.
There are 3^3 cubic feet in a cubic yard.
So, multiply by 1/3^3 = 1/27 to do the conversion from cubic feet to cubic yards.
And watch your units!
