A restaurant uses a 15 pound bag of flour and four days. Each day, the bag of flour gets lighter as more flour is used. How much does the average amount of flour in the bag change each day round to the nearest hundredths
To find the average amount of flour the bag loses each day, we need to divide the total amount of flour lost by the number of days.
The total amount of flour lost is 15 pounds since that is the weight of the bag.
The average amount of flour lost each day is 15 pounds / 4 days = 3.75 pounds per day.
Rounded to the nearest hundredths, the average amount of flour lost each day is approximately 3.75 pounds per day.
To find the average amount of flour the bag loses each day, we can divide the total amount of flour lost (15 pounds) by the number of days (4).
15 pounds รท 4 days = 3.75 pounds
Therefore, the average amount of flour the bag loses each day is 3.75 pounds, rounded to the nearest hundredth.
To find the average amount of flour that the bag loses each day, you need to divide the total amount of flour lost over the four days by the number of days.
The total amount of flour lost can be found by subtracting the final weight of the bag from the initial weight:
Total amount of flour lost = Initial weight - Final weight
Since the bag starts at 15 pounds and gets lighter, the initial weight is 15 pounds.
To find the final weight, you would need more information. If you have the weight of the bag on each of the four days, you can calculate the final weight by adding up the weights and subtracting from the initial weight. If you only have the weight of the bag on the fourth day, you can use that as the final weight.
Once you have the total amount of flour lost over the four days, you can calculate the average amount of flour lost each day by dividing the total amount lost by 4 (the number of days).
Average amount of flour lost each day = Total amount of flour lost / Number of days
Round the answer to the nearest hundredth for the final result.
