A "yard of gravel" is a measure of volume, not a measure of area. There are 27 cubic feet (3x3x3 feet) in a yard of gravel, or one cubic yard.
Gravel is bought in cubic quantities, or by weight. You ask "to fill" but you only give a square measure. The volume of gravel required wil depends on the depth you wish the gravel to be. To fill 81 square metres to a depth of 5 cm would require 4.05 cubic metres of material.
When they need an approximate measurement. The scales used to weigh a truckload of gravel are not as accurate as laboratory scales that can measure the weight of a pencil mark on a bit of paper- but extreme accuracy is not needed for the gravel truck.
This depends on the size of gravel, the water content of the gravel, and the material composition of the rock used to make the gravel. Typically 1 cu.yd. of gravel wieghs 3000 lb.
The more gravel you have, the more it weighs.

To measure tons of gravel in a stockpile, you can use the formula for volume calculation by taking length x width x height. Then, you can convert the volume to weight by multiplying it by the density of gravel, typically around 1.5 tons per cubic yard. This will give you an estimated weight of gravel in the stockpile in tons.
You cannot directly convert cubic yards to square yards because they measure different things: volume vs. area. Cubic yards measure volume, while square yards measure area. To find how many square yards cover the same area as a cubic yard of gravel, you would need to know the thickness or depth of the gravel layer.
A cubic yard of gravel will cover 81 square feet at 4" of thickness. Multiply the width of the patio by the length of the patio to get your square footage. Gravel is usually sold by the cubic yard.
No, a cubic yard of gravel will have a different volume measurement compared to a cubic yard of dirt because they have different densities. Gravel is denser and heavier, so it will take up less volume than dirt in a cubic yard.

A "sack" is not a standard unit of measure, sacks come in many sizes. For this reason one can not say in general how many cubic meters of gravel any sack contains.
