吃饭 is to eat (a meal) and does not pose a question. or were you wanting 'what rice/meal are they eating' which would be 吃什么饭. or are you asking 吃饭什么, the problem there is the question 'what' is replacing 饭

Chinese question words are put in the same position that the answer would be in a statement. That is why you will see different question words in different places.
她是老师 - She is the teacher.
谁是老师 - Who is the teacher?
他吃了苹果 - He ate apples.
他吃了什么 - He ate what? / What did he eat?

There is a grammar reference before every lesson but it is quite brief so you should refer to any other sources
