How many dry quarts in a dry cubic foot?

I need 24 cubic feet of vermiculite and currently have 3 bags of 8 dry quarts each. How many more bags will I need?

-------------------------------------- Answer below-----------------------------------------

1 dry quart = 0.038889 cubic foot

24 cubic feet is about 617 dry quarts. Subtract the quarts you have, you need

617 - 8 x 3 = 609 quarts.

So, you need 609/8, about 76 more bags.

-------------------------------------------------

Man, do yourself a favor and get one of the large 4 cu ft bags instead of by the quart. You'll pay about $25 at an Agway and you'll save yourself a lot of money in the long run.

24 cubic ft = 618 quarts

3 bags x 8qts = 24 qts

618-24=594 more qts needed

594/8=74.25 or 75 more bags needed

Totally agree....buy it in cu ft bags 1 cu ft = 25.75 qts
