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.
