For a meal, you typically need about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of uncooked rice per person, which translates to approximately 2 to 4 ounces. Therefore, for 16 people, you would need about 1 to 2 pounds of uncooked rice, depending on portion sizes and whether rice is the main dish or a side. It's always a good idea to prepare a bit more to ensure everyone is satisfied!

16 pounds = 16 pounds
That's entirely dependant on the size of the serving, but very easy to calculate. First you determine the size of the serving in "ounces of uncooked rice". Then multtiply by 500 (servings) and divide by 16 (ounces per pound) to find how many pounds of rice you need to feed all 500.
