Answer:

102 full loaves of bread

Explanation:

The complete question includes the next datum:

A baker uses 5.5 pounds of flour daily

In two weeks, that is, 14 days, he will use: 5.5 pounds * 14 = 77 pounds

The equivalency between pounds and ounces is

1 lb = 16 oz

Then, 77 pounds * 16 = 1232 ounces

Each loaf of bread calls 12 ounces of flour, so 1232 ounces / 12 ≈ 102 full loaves of bread
