#40# meals.

Explanation:

First, you would find how many ounces there are in the #10# pound bag.

To do this, you would first figure out how many ounces are in #1# pound. There are #16# ounces in a pound, so you would take #10# times #16#.

#10 xx 16 = 160# ounces

When you do this, you find out that there are #160# ounces of dog food in the bag.

Now, you see that the dog gets fed #4# ounces per meal.
To figure out how many meals this is, you divide:

#160 "ounces" div 4#
#=40#

This gives you the answer of #40# meals.

To double check this, you can simply take #40# times #4# and get #160#.

Now you know that the bag is equal to #40# meals.
