Yes, one crushed campden tablet per gallon would be the "dose".

To split hairs, K-meta and Campden tabs are the same thing, not substitutes. Campden tabs are simply fixed quantities of K-meta mixed with a non active powder.
Given the question I would also mention that it is easier to dissolve the tabs in water rather than in the cider itself. So simply take a small measure of water and add the crushed tabs to it and after stirring to dissolve add that mixture to the cider.
