Answer 1

43/100 kilograms of flour.

Answer 2

Total amount of the flour used is
`(43)/(100)` kg.

Explanation:

Baker starts with
`(4)/(10)` kilograms of flour to make bread.

He further adds flour to his bread mixture =
`(3)/(100)` kg

Now we have to calculate the amount of flour he used to make the bread.

Total flour =
`(4)/(10)+(3)/(100)`

=
`(40+3)/(100)`

=
`(43)/(100)` kg

Therefore, total amount of the flour used is
`(43)/(100)` kg
