Sand is NOT necessarily the greatest portion of a soil mixture.
Many areas have "clayey soil" (which are higher in clay than any other component).
Some other areas have "loamy soil" (which are about 1/3 clay, 1/3 silt, & 1/3 sand -- and typically considered ideal soils for growing food and many other plants.)
Some other areas have "sandy soil" (which is higher in sand than any other component)

If the soil sample has 30 million particles of soil and 60 of those particles are sand, then the number of soil particles that are sand is 60. Sand particles represent 0.000002% of the total particles in the soil sample.
