Examples
1
Consider that a volume of seawater is measured as 2 cubic fathoms. Convert this volume from cubic fathoms to Cubic Yard.
Answer:
Given:
The volume in cubic fathom is:
Volume(Cubic Fathom) = 2
Formula:
The formula to convert volume from cubic fathom to cubic yard is:
Volume(Cubic Yard) = Volume(Cubic Fathom) × 8
Substitution:

Answer:
Given:
The volume in cubic fathom is:
Volume(Cubic Fathom) = 5
Formula:
The formula to convert volume from cubic fathom to cubic yard is:
Volume(Cubic Yard) = Volume(Cubic Fathom) × 8
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Volume(Cubic Fathom) = 5 in the above formula.
Volume(Cubic Yard) = 5 × 8
Volume(Cubic Yard) = 40
Final Answer:
Therefore, 5 cu fm is equal to 40 yd^3.
The volume is 40 yd^3, in cubic yard.

Cubic Fathom
The cubic fathom is a unit of measurement used to quantify three-dimensional volumes, particularly in maritime and construction contexts. Originating from the fathom, a traditional unit of length used in navigation and depth measurement, the cubic fathom provides a standardized way to measure volume. Historically, it was used in maritime settings to measure the volume of cargo holds and other spaces on ships. Today, while less commonly used, it still finds application in specific industries where its historical relevance and practical utility are recognized.
Cubic Yard
The cubic yard is a unit of measurement used to quantify three-dimensional volumes, commonly applied in construction, landscaping, and various industrial contexts. It is defined as the volume of a cube with sides each measuring one yard in length. Originating from the Imperial system, the cubic yard provides a standardized measure for practical volume calculations. Historically, it has been used to measure materials like soil, concrete, and gravel. Today, it is widely used in the US and other countries with Imperial systems for tasks such as calculating material quantities for construction projects, landscaping, and waste management.
