About Converting Grams per Milliliter to Kilograms per Cubic yard
Gram per Milliliter and Kilogram per Cubic yard both measure density — mass per unit volume — a property used to identify materials, check manufacturing quality, and predict whether something floats or sinks. As a fixed reference point, water has a density of exactly 1000 kg/m³ (1 g/cm³, 1 g/mL) at its temperature of maximum density, which is why many density figures in science and engineering are quoted relative to water. Gram per Milliliter is most often used for commonly used in chemistry coursework and laboratory reporting to express the density of liquids and solutions.
Formula
kilograms per cubic yard = grams per milliliter × 764.554857984
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 gram per milliliter equals 1000 base units, and 1 kilogram per cubic yard equals 1.30795061931 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gram per milliliter-to-kilogram per cubic yard factor of 764.554857984.
Simple example
1 g/mL × 764.554858 = 764.554858 kg/yd3
1 gram per milliliter = 764.554858 kilograms per cubic yard.
Real-world example
1,000 g/mL × 764.554858 = 764,554.858 kg/yd3
1,000 grams per milliliter = 764,554.858 kilograms per cubic yard.

What's the difference between density and mass concentration?
Density is the mass of a pure substance or material per unit volume. Mass concentration is the mass of one component — like a dissolved solute — within a mixture's total volume. The two use the same kind of units but describe different physical situations.
