This depends on how you are serving the potatoes and what part of the meal the potatoes will be. I would probably use one potato per person. I would also have an extra potato for every two men, and count half of a potato per child. That is if the potatoes were only part of the meal and not the whole meal. Being able to use math comes in handy. I would count the potatoes in a 10 pound bag and then decide how many to buy. I have also found that the different types of potatoes do better in different dishes.
