Five hundred and fifty people will be fed.
Assuming that everyone will eat 1/4 of a chicken, how many whole chickens should be
ordered?

550 divided by 4=138 whole 2 1/2 to 3 pound chickens. However, in my experience, if you cut some of the quarters apart, some folks take just 1 piece, so you would do less for buffet service than plated.

Do you have a vegetarian alternative for the non-meat eaters? With 550 people there willl be some.
