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.

How many pounds of pinto beans to serve 75 people?

To determine how many pounds of pinto beans you need to serve 75 people, you first need to calculate the serving size per person. A typical serving of cooked pinto beans is about 1/2 cup. With 75 people, you would need approximately 37.5 cups of cooked beans. One pound of dried pinto beans yields about 6 cups when cooked, so you would need roughly 6.25 pounds of dried pinto beans to serve 75 people.
