ounces could mean both weight and volume, which is the source of the confusion. In order to answer the question, you need to weigh the food, and find how many cups are in one Lbs. I measured different type of dog food, and hound that 5 cups weigh between 1.8Lbs to 2.2 Lbs. That implies that one Lbs of dog food can give 2.3 to 2.7 cups. So - an average 20 Lbs bag of dog food has approximately 50 cups. ======================== I agree with the original answer although there is a way to get an approximate answer. Because you can convert ounces and pounds, and you get 8 ounces per cup. With 16 ounces making a pound you can get an approximate answer to how many cups in a 20 pound bag. So you should get about 40 cups, again depending on size of the food. It could vary depending on how dense the food is. A cup is a measure of volume. A pound is a measure of weight. They do not directly convert.
The conservation of mass helps us understand that mass cannot be created or destroyed, only changed in form. This principle is essential in various daily activities such as cooking (where ingredients combine to form new dishes), waste management (recycling materials to reduce waste), and understanding environmental processes (such as nutrient cycling in ecosystems).
Common examples of items that weigh less than a pound include a loaf of bread, a tablet device, or a small bag of rice.
A 50 lb bag is equivalent to approximately 12.5 quarts.
The package of vegetables weighs 4 pounds (64 ounces ÷ 16 ounces/pound = 4 pounds).

There are 8 oz. in a cup so how many cups equal a pound?

Well,it depends on the dog food.
Well, I buy my cat a 5 pound bag of food which lasts her about a month and she gets 1/2 cup of food per day. Thus, there are approximately (.5 * 30) 15 cups in a 5 pound bag. That works out to approximately three cups per pound, so in a 6.6 pound bag of food there would be approximately (3 * 6.6) 19.8 cups. This is all estimated, and of course the kibble size and density plays a factor, but I hope that gives you a ballpark of how many cups you can expect.
