Here is the information you are given and a corresponding equation demonstrating the relationship between the given information and the unknown.
Vtotal = Vwater + Vsand = 42cm3
Here is the given equation rearranged (by subtracting the volume of water from both sides) to target the unknown information (volume of sand).
Vsand = Vtotal - Vwater
Plugging in the given info to the equation yields your answer.
Vsand = 42 - 20
Vsand = 22cm3
