What technique will use to separate sand from table salt?

To separate a mixture of salt and sand, take the whole thing and chuck it in a container like a bowl or bucket. Now add water to cover the mixture, and stir well to dissolve the salt. Pour the liquid off through a filter and collect the solution that comes through. Rinse the sand with more water, and let that come through the filter as well. Now you have wet sand (that has had the salt washed out of it) and a solution of salt and water. If you spread the sand out on a clean flat surface, you can let it dry and then recover your sand. Take the solution of salt and water and heat it to "reduce" it, and then put the solution on "low" to quickly evaporate the water and leave the salt. Recover the salt and finish drying it if it is not dry already. You have performed a physical process to separate a mixture, and you've recovered your two original materials.

Can fractional distillation best separate a mixture of sand and sulfur?

Fractional distillation is not the best separation method for a sand and sulfur mix. It's a very poor choice as it won't work. Use a solvent for the sulfur like dimethyl ether of, say, diethylene glycol. It will take the sulfur into solution and you can wash the solution out of the sand.
