If you are going to buy river stone/pebles/rock from supplier they use the "formula"

Cubic Yards x 1.25 = Weight in tons.

They then sell it by the ton. (say $300 per ton)

But this is an approximation. If it is one very big river rock it would be a good approximation, but even then it would depend upon the density of the rock eg granite would require a bigger constant (the 1.25) than a Sandstone boulder.

How do you convert in kg to cu ft in mix ratio in aggregate?

You need to know the density of the aggregate. Typically that will be in Imperial system (pounds per cubic feet) or in SI system (kilograms per cubic metre). Use Volume = Mass/Density to convert to volume in the same system. Then convert from SI to Imperial (or reverse) using 1 cubic metre = 35.315 cu ft or 1 cu ft = 0.02832 cubic metre.
