I am hosting a breakfast/brunch for about 200 people, a mix of kids and adults. Will be serving bagels, lox, whitefish salad, tuna salad, egg sald and pasta salad. Can you help me determine how much I need of each?

With kids coming, I would definitely add at least fruit trays, this is not a hugely kid friendly menu. See the fruit tray page, 2 times the tray for 100.
1 full bagel per person plus 10%
add cream cheese, 200 ounces, and neuchatel is easier to spread than full-fat cream cheese
Jams/jellies, about 10 pounds
lox, 2 ounces per person
whitefish salad, about 3 gallons unless it is very popular where you are
tuna salad, about 16 pounds plus fixings, tune comes in a 5 1/2 pound can at a restaurant supply grocer
egg salad- 150 eggs
pasta salad - start with 12 pounds pasta salad, make it kid-friendly, not too exotic
