How many ounces of raw potato go into a "standard" (as in food service) serving of mashed potatoes.

Seriously? Of RAW potato? That can't be right

Yes. I am weighing out potatoes that I am going to cook. In an attempt at portion control I am seeking out how much potato, by weight, to use per portion so that everyone gets a decent serving but there are not a lot of leftovers.
