Answer: 61 Biscuits

Step-by-step explanation: 13g of butter per biscuit, 25g sugar per biscuit, 32.5g flour per biscuit, 21.25g rice per biscuit

By taking the amount of flour per biscuit (the largest ingredient) and dividing 2000 by it you get 61 which is the most amount of biscuits he can make with his ingredients.
