Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

An amount no 9 people could consume. 114 kg is a huge amount of cooked rice. I' going to give a solution that says the rice is 114 grams of rice and see what happens.

Givens

rice = 114 grams

veggies = 500 grams

meat = 410 grams

Solution

Add the givens

114

500

410

Total = 1024 grams

If 9 people are going to be present, (I assume that includes Tara), then each person will get 1024 / 9 = 113.8 which is none of the choices. There is something wrong with the problem. I would suggest you ask your teacher how this is done.

Answer

None of those given
