You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First calculate how many cubic meters is one tile.

One tile: 1%2A%2812%2F1%29%2A%280.0254%2F1%29%2A1%2A%2812%2F1%29%2A%280.0254%2F1%29%2A0.02 cubic meters.
I did not show the units ratios, but you should fill them in to be sure that expression works.
12 inches = 1 foot
2.54 cm = 1 inch
100 cm = 1 m
0.01 m = 1 cm.

Now how many of THOSE cubic meters are in the one big block of 1 cubic meter stone?
