2.37 cubic yards of stone for every 3 inches deep it needs to be
The 4 inches is 4/12 of a foot or 1/3 foot. Length times width times height is the volume, so 2856 (the area in square feet) times 1/3 (the depth in feet) = 952 cubic feet.
Any reason why it shouldn't be 220, apart from the shape of the area?
Technically, none. A square foot is a measure of area whereas it is the volume of water that is required. To convert from area to volume it is necessary to know the depth. A twelfth of a cubic foot will cover an area of one square foot to a depth of 1 inch. A cubic foot will cover it to a depth of 1 foot, 100 cubic feet will cover it to a depth of 100 feet.
160 of them.
An area 10 foot x 10 foot is 100 square feet. 100 cubic feet of sand would cover it with a one foot deep layer of sand. If the sand needs to be 6 inches deep, then 50 cubic feet are be needed, or 25 cubic feet if the sand is to be 3 inches thick.
You will need 1500 cubic feet.
Take the sq foot and divide by 140 if you want the stone apx. 2" deep.

A square foot will cover a square foot, regardless of the depth of the material the cover is made of.

It should take about 825 1 foot square tiles to cover a floor with those dimensions. This assumes roughly a 10% waste factor.
