About 2/3 a cup of dry pinto beans will result in one pound of cooked pinto beans. One pound of dry pinto beans = 2 cups of dry beans = 6 cups of cooked pinto beans 2 cups of cooked beans = about 16 ounces = one pound of cooked beans
To serve pinto beans as a side dish for 400 people, you typically need about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of cooked beans per person. This translates to approximately 1/8 to 1/6 cup of dried beans per person, which is about 50-67 pounds of dried pinto beans in total, considering that dried beans roughly triple in weight when cooked. Therefore, you should plan for around 60 pounds of dried pinto beans to adequately feed 400 people as a side dish.
The weight of dried pinto beans can vary slightly, but on average, about 7 to 8 dried pinto beans weigh approximately 1 gram. This means you would need around 7 to 8 beans to equal 1 gram. Keep in mind that the exact number may vary depending on the size and moisture content of the beans.
To determine the amount of pinto beans needed for 100 people, we must consider the typical serving size and the weight of a pound of pinto beans. A standard serving size of cooked pinto beans is around 1/2 cup, and a pound of dried pinto beans yields about 6 cups when cooked. Therefore, for 100 people, assuming each person consumes one serving, you would need approximately 17 pounds of dried pinto beans (100 servings ÷ 6 cups per pound).
You can freeze them for up to 6 months if they are in a sealed bag.

I think the question is about how much weight dried beans gain when cooked, but I could be wrong! Most types of dried beans absorb a little under 1.5 times their own weight in water during cooking (ref: http://www.springerlink.com/content/m2p808873j7r276w/). Based on this information, you need to use a factor of about 2.5 on the weights depending on whether you had cooked or dried beans. If a recipe says to use 100g of dried beans and you have cooked ones, use 250g of them. If the recipe says to use 100g of cooked beans, you need to start with about 40g only.
