First, you need the density of pea gravel. This depends heavily on particle size and cleanness of the gravel, but a density of 3000lb/yard3 is a realistic estimate. If you want the final answer in metric, it's useful to convert the density to 1780kg/meter3. Knowing this density, you can use it as a conversion factor. You just take the mass of your Pea gravel (for example 50kg) and multiply it by 1 meter3/1780kg to make the units cancel out.
Or if you want it easy, just take the weight of your pea gravel in kilograms and divide it by 1780 to get volume in cubic meters. This is a very rough estimate, and actual values depend on the density of the pea gravel being used. The basic idea for any conversion is that you get the density and make sure it uses cubic meters.

Convert 560 cubic feet into cubic meters?
560 cubic feet are 15.857434092 cubic meters.
How do you convert grams to cubic meter?
This is not a valid conversion because cubic meters is a measure of volume while grams is a measure of weight or mass.
How much gravel to fill 81 meters squared?
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.
If you spread 20MM of gravel over 2860M2 area how many cubic meters will you need?
1 cubic meter of grave contains 50 square meters at 20mm depth (1000mm / 20mm = 50). 2860 / 50 = 57.2 So you need 57.2 cubic meters of gravel.
How many meters are in a square centimeters?
You can't convert that. One is a unit of length, the other, of area. You can convert meters to centimeters, square meters to square centimeters, or cubic meters to cubic centimeters.
