Depending on what else is on the menu, between 1/4 and a half pound per person.
For 200 people, you'd need around 3 gallons of macaroni salad.
The standard serving size is 1 cup (of salad) per person, meaning you'd need 75 cups of macaroni salad, which is about 2 ounces of uncooked macaroni per person. This means a 16 ounce package of macaroni can feed about 8 people, meaning you would need 9 boxes. Of course, this is based on if EVERY person ate it, and EVERY person ate 1 cup of the salad. But, keep in mind, if this is on a buffet (where people dip their own), some people will eat a lot more than 1 cup, some will eat a lot less than 1 cup, and others won't eat ANY--making it balance out.

The amount of salad dressing needed typically depends on personal preference and the size of the salad. A general guideline is to use about 2 to 3 tablespoons of dressing per serving, which is approximately 1 to 1.5 ounces. For a larger salad serving 4-6 people, you might need around 6 to 8 ounces of dressing. Adjust based on your taste and the type of salad being prepared.
One large head should do nicely especially if complemented with other things like cucumbers, tomatoes, celery, etc.
