how many tons of rock are in a yard?
2.3million each weighed on average 2.5 to 15 tons
The average person would eat approximately 8 pounds of beef if they consume 2.5 tons of it. This calculation is based on the conversion of tons to pounds, with 1 ton equal to 2,000 pounds.
1CY of class II base rock weighs ? tons

Unless the rock is completely flat, there is no point in measuring the rock in yards.
On average, a cord of pulpwood weighs about 2 tons.
Many of the modern cruise ships average around 100,000 gross tons. they range from 80,000 tons to one that is being built by the Royal Caribbean line that will weigh in at 220,000 gross tons.
Quite a lot
This depends on how much rock you will use per square yard. Suppose you intend to use 1/100 tons (=20 lb) per square yard. Then if you have one ton of rock, it will cover 100 square yards. Similarly, if you intended to use 1/50 tons per square yard, 1 ton will cover 50 square yards. In general you want to use factor labeling: If you are using x tons per square yard, then write this as (1 square yard) / (x tons of rock) = (1/x)*(square yards/tons of rock) This is called a conversion factor. Now, if you have some quantity of rock, say y tons of rock, and you want to see how many square yards it would cover you just multiply (y tons of rock)*(1/x)*(square yards/tons of rock) = y/x (square yards*tons of rock/tons of rock) = y/x square yards since the labels just divide out.
