A ton is a measure of mass. A cubic foot is a measure of volume. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.
If you are not convinced, consider 40 cubic feet of air. How many tons? Next consider 40 cubic feet of lead. How many tons?
A 100 cubic feet of what? The mass of a 100 cubic feet of air would be substantially different from the same volume of lead, for example.
tons use of weight and cubic feet for the volume of the two compared with Rob Gelphman.
At 100 pounds per cubic foot, that is 20 cubic feet per ton = 0.57 cubic meters
Knowing that 1 cubic foot is pretty much equal to 100 pounds or 0.05 ton, 1 ton of gravel is around 20 cubic feet.
One ton of granite is equivalent to approximately 36 cubic feet.

On average, there are about 0.83 cubic yards of dirt in a ton, which is equivalent to roughly 22 cubic feet. This can vary depending on the density of the dirt and how tightly it is packed.
There are approximately 42.6 cubic feet in 2.13 tons. This conversion is based on the fact that 1 ton is equivalent to 20 cubic feet.

It depends on the density of the M sand. Assuming the density is around 100 lbs per cubic foot, one ton of M sand would be roughly 20 cubic feet.
sand weighs 100 pounds per cubic feet 2000 pounds is one ton 2000/100 = 20 cubic feet 1 meter = 3.28 feet 1 cu meter = 3.28 x 3.28 x 3.28 = 35.31 cu ft 20 cubic feet = 20/35.31 = 0.566 cubic meters
1 cubic metre = 1000 litres
