Clean quartz sand weighs 80-125 pounds per cubic foot depending on degree of compaction and moisture content.

A cubic yard is made up from 27 cubic feet. So taking a value of about 100 pounds of sand per cubic foot, 1 cubic yards of sand would weigh 2700 pounds or 1.35 ton [short, US].

Thus 4/1.35 = 2.963

So 4 short, US tons of sand would occupy a volume of 2.963 cubic yards.

That is an incorrect comparement. Yards are length; Cubic Yards are volume.
