To determine how many 6-ounce servings are in a 24-pound bag of cat food, we can first convert the weight of the bag from pounds to ounces.
1 pound is equal to 16 ounces. Therefore, to convert 24 pounds to ounces:
\[
24 \text{ pounds} \times 16 \text{ ounces/pound} = 384 \text{ ounces}
\]
Next, we need to find out how many 6-ounce servings are in 384 ounces. We can do this by dividing the total ounces by the size of each serving:
\[
\text{Number of servings} = \frac{384 \text{ ounces}}{6 \text{ ounces/serving}} = 64 \text{ servings}
\]
Thus, there are **64 servings** of 6 ounces in a 24-pound bag of cat food.
