Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -One cup of uncooked rice will yield approximately three cups cooked.

Detailed explanation-2: -Store in tightly-sealed containers in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days at 40°F (4°C) or lower. They can also be frozen for a few months. Hot grains that are kept compact at temperatures of 40°F to 140°F (4°C to 60°C) for any length of time can cause harmful bacteria to rapidly multiply.
