The Grand Canyon has a volume of 4.17 trillion cubic meters according to the National Park Service page

The volume of an m&m is 636 cubic centimeters according to National Public Radio

636 cubic centimeters = 0.000636 cubic meters (divide by 1000000)(or divide by 100^3)

Assume that the m&ms at the bottom get crushed and the m&ms at the top get melted (treat everything as a liquid).

volume of grand canyon divided by the volume of an m&m is:

4170000000000/0.000636

=6.55660377×10^15

=6,556,603,770,000,000

6 and a half quadrillion m&m's would fill the Grand Canyon.
