Kevlar Bullet

What thickness of Kevlar sheet would be required in the following example?
If a bullet (such as a 7.62 x 39mm rifle bullet or a 12 ga. shotgun slug) were fired into a hollow sheet metal cube (such as a locker), what thickness of Kevlar sheet would have to be on the opposite side of the cube to stop continued travel and penetration of the projectile?
To better clarify this question ... the Kevlar would be "sandwiched" between the "sheet metal cube" and a cinderblock wall. The Kevlar have be used to protect everything that is behind the "sheet metal cube". The "sheet metal cube" can be sacrificed, the items behind the "sheet metal cube' cannot be sacrificed.
Also, the projectile would be fired at point blank distance using hunting or military surplus ammunition out of a firearm with an average of 20" barrel.
Not enough information, besides what's already mentioned, i.e. is the bullet armor piercing? You would need at least type III armor protection, which will not be just Kevlar. Maybe a combination of Kevlar and Ceramic material plates.

45 ACP vs Kevlar bullet-proof vest...
Which ballistic material is better for Bullet proof vests, Kevlar or Spectra?
I wanna say Kevlar is better..
The development of kevlar body armor by NIJ was a four-phase effort that took place over several years. The first phase involved testing kevlar fabric to determine whether it could stop a lead bullet. The second phase involved determining the number of layers of material necessary to prevent penetration by bullets of varying speeds and calibers and developing a prototype vest that would protect officers against the most common threats: the 38 Special and the 22 Long Rifle bullets.
Researching Kevlar Bullet Proof Vests
By 1973, researchers at the Army's Edgewood Arsenal responsible for the bullet proof vest design had developed a garment made of seven layers of Kevlar fabric for use in field trials. It was determined that the penetration resistance of Kevlar was degraded when wet. The bullet resistant properties of the fabric also diminished upon exposure to ultraviolet light, including sunlight. Dry-cleaning agents and bleach also had a negative effect on the antiballistic properties of the fabric, as did repeated washing. To protect against these problems, the vest was designed with waterproofing, as well as with fabric coverings to prevent exposure to sunlight and other degrading agents.
