Experiment at home with the stove you intend to use and the food you intend to eat. That's the only way to tell for sure. Everyone cooks and eats differently, so what works for me might not work for you.

Having said that, a conservative approach is to use 3 fluid oz (about 2 oz by weight) of white gas per person per cooking day as long as you are not melting snow or cooking in very windy conditions.

I find that the way I eat on the trail I use less than this - sometimes quite a bit less.
