How many tons of gravel does it take to fill a hole 12 feet by 14 feet?

None.
You have only given an area and no depth. Without a depth, the volume is zero and thus the hole does not exist and no gravel will be needed.
If you meant a round hole 12 ft by 14 ft it is still unclear as to the dimension of the hole: firstly which is the depth (the 14 ft is the most likely), but when speaking of a round hole would you mean the perimeter, the radius or diameter for the given measurement? They all lead to different volumes and hence difference amounts of gravel needed to fill the hole.
Ans 3 - 12 x 14 is NOT round it is rectangular

∙ 8y ago12 x 14 feet is 168 square feet. But this is area, flat surface. A cubic foot of average gravel weighs about 100 pounds. So for every foot of depth your gravel would weigh 16,800 pounds (or about 7.5 tons.). if your hole is 4 feet deep you will need 67,200 pounds ( or 30 tons) of gravel.

How did people find water underground?
In many areas of the world you will find water by simply digging a hole in the ground. In some places a hole as shallow as 5-6 feet will slowly fill with water.In many areas of the world you will find water by simply digging a hole in the ground.

How many cubic feet of rock do you need to fill a hole 5 foot by 5 foot by 3 foot deep?
The answer to this question depends on the type of rock you wish to fill the hole with. If you use a solid block of rock to fill the hole (unlikely unless you plan to carve it out of a piece of marble), then the cubic feet of rock required is simply 5 x 5 x 3 = 75 cubic feet. If you plan to use other forms of rock such as rubble, or gravel or granular A, or screenings, you will need to contact your local quarry to determine how they measure this quantity. I suspect, you would still specify the cubic feet as 75 cubic feet and that is what they will deliver. Depending on form, each one will only weigh a different amount (due to the spaces between pieces of stone) but will fill the same volume. I don't know if this is what you were asking but .

How many square yards of dirt are needed to fill a hole that is 803 square feet?
The question cannot be answered in a sensible way. The size of the hole is given in only two dimensions - in all likelihood, that means the area that the hole covers but not how deep it is. The amount of dirt required to fill the hole will depend on the depth of the hole as well.
