A baker has 28 pounds of flour.
-there are 3 cups in each pound of flour.
She uses 5 cups of flour to make a large
loaf of bread.
How many large loaves of bread can the
baker make?

Respuesta :

Answer:

16 large loaves of bread

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity of flour has the baker = 28 pounds.

1 pound of flour = 3 cups

So that,

28 pounds of flour = 3 cups x 28

                                = 84 cups

Since she uses 5 cups of flour to make a large loaf of bread, then;

the number of loaves that can be made = [tex]\frac{84}{5}[/tex]

                                          = 16.8

Therefore, the baker would be able to make 16 large loaves of bread.

Answer:

Four times the amount of flour for the raisin bread plus 2.5 cups equals 12.5 cups total. The equation is 4x + 2.5 = 12.5. First, I subtract 2.5 from both sides, and then I divide both sides by 4. Each loaf contains 2.5 cups of flour.
