Question

a baker makes 20 loaves of bread each day. the loaves are either white or brown. the ratio of white loaves to brown loaves is always 6:4. after how many days would the baker have made 240 brown loaves

Answer 1

Explanation:

The ratio of white loaves to brown loaves is 6:4

20 loaves per day divide 10 parts(6+4)

20/10=2 One part is 2 loaves

In one day, the baker makes 6x2=12 white loaves and 4x2=8 brown loaves

240 divided by 8 = 30 days.
