Rice absorbs twice its own volume of water during the cooking process.
So 1 cup if dry rice will make 3 cups of cooked rice.
-------------------------------------------------
1 metric cup = 1/4 liter or 250 centiliters
The density of water = 1 and therefore 1 cup will weigh 250 grams
There will be 225 grams of dry rice in one (metric cup) because (rice density is about 0.9 g/cm³)
This means that one cooked 1 metric cup of dry rice will weigh 725 grams.
Therefore
(100/725)*225 = 31 grams of dried rice will make 100 grams of cooked rice.
