1 and half tons
It takes 2L of water to make 1 kg of concrete. That is approximately 4800L per cubic meter.
Gravel occupies about 70-80% of the volume of concrete.It makes concrete economicalStrength of the concrete is determined only by the gravel. i.e., the body of the concrete.Property of concrete determined by the type of aggregate used.Shrinkage is less when larger size aggregate is used.
Each 60 pounds bag of ready mix concrete will make .45 cubic foot of concrete. There are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard. You will need 60 bags of 60 pound premixed concrete to make 1 cubic yard.
If you wish to get cement it's better to buy it bagged. If you wish to make concrete using the ratio suggested there would be 64 sand to 80 of gravel.

varies due to moisture content of aggregate and stiffnes of mix needed (slump)
An 80 pound bag of premix concrete will make .6 cubic feet of cured concrete. There are 27 cubic feet in a cubic meter, so it would take 45 80 pound bags to make one cubic meter.
