To determine the number of institutional size cans of green beans needed to feed 100 people, we first need to establish the serving size per person. Let's assume a standard serving size of 1/2 cup of green beans per person. With 100 people to feed, that would amount to 50 cups of green beans in total. Institutional size cans typically contain around 6-7 cups of green beans, so you would need around 8-9 cans to feed 100 people a 1/2 cup serving of green beans each.

To determine how many cans of green beans you need to feed 50 people, you must first decide on the serving size per person. Let's assume a typical serving size is 1/2 cup. A standard can of green beans contains about 3.5 cups. Therefore, you would need approximately 7 cans of green beans to feed 50 people a 1/2 cup serving each.
a 10 lb can of green beans will feed 50 people with 3 oz portions.

The cans are 14.5 oz in weight, not volume. My can says it has 3.5 servings at 1/2 cup (volume!) per serving. So 1.75 cups per can. 8/1.75 = 4.5 cans. So 5 cans of green beans to make that double batch of green bean casserole.
Ten gallons of beans will be needed to feed 300 people. It is estimated that one gallon will serve 30 to 35 people.
One can will serve about 26 people. 5 cans should cover you. That is called a #10 can, and holds 13 cups. A serving of vegetables is one half cup.
I would use 150 cans
Without knowing what kind of dish you are serving the red beans in, this will be an estimate. For straight red beans, served as a side dish, you can estimate that each person will eat approximately 1/2 c of beans. For 150 people, this is 75 cups. Each can tends to have about 1 cup worth of beans in it, so you would need 75 cans of red beans.
it depends on how much people want!
Well, honey, if you're serving green beans to 100 people, you're gonna need about 8-10 gallon cans of those suckers. Each gallon can typically serves around 10-12 people, so do the math and make sure you don't leave anyone hungry. Just don't forget the butter and seasoning, or you'll have a riot on your hands!
