How many cups of pet food are in a 20 pound bag?

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.
