It depends on how much nutrition and food those 9 people each need to survive.

If you're trying to determine how big of a turkey to buy for Thanksgiving, a good rule of thumb is to buy 1 pound of turkey per person to allow for seconds and leftovers. So if you're having 9 guests for Thanksgiving, you'll need a 9-pound bird.

edit:

Remember that a 9 pound turkey is not 9lbs of meat...you'll need to account for bones and wingtips, etc. Ideally for nine people, you'll want a 15lb bird.

A turkey to feed three people will be a bird that is 10 pounds or less. It might be more economical when buying turkey for three people to just buy parts of the turkey. Usually a turkey breast and the turkey legs can be purchased separately.

Normally you should estimate 1lb raw turkey for each person to be served.
Therefore you will need approximately 60lbs of uncooked turkey. Bake 3 20lb Turkeys.
