Just because you're a beginner you should start now to do your homework by yrself. It's not difficult.
Magnis is dative/ablative plural of the adjective magnus in all the 3 genders and therefore it agrees with any of the nouns that are dative/ablative plural.
One by one they are :
nocte is dative/ablative but singular. it can't work
oneribus is dative/ablative plural and it agrees
servis is dative/ablative plural and it agrees
feminas is accusative plural . It can't work
rotis is dative/ablative plural and it agrees.
So oneribus - servis and rotis can agree with magnis.

Now that I've explained how it works you must finish yr HW by yourself.
Last help:
magnae is feminine - it can be either singular genitive or dative and either plural nominative or vocative.
magnos is masculine plural accusative
magnum is either masculine singular accusative or neuter singular nominative/accusative/vocative.
At this point you've just to determine gender number and case of the nouns and put adjectives' agreements together,

good luck !!
