Answer:

728 kg

Explanation:

In order to solve this we just have to do a rule of three, if you used 560 kg last month and this month you used 30% more, you used 130% this month, how much would that be?

YOu can solve it with th next equation:


(560)/(100) =(x)/(130)

YOu just need to clear x:


x=(560*130)/(100) \\x=(72800)/(100) =728 kg

So this month the bakery used 728 kg.
