To find the difference in the number of bags used, we need to subtract the number of bags used in the first week from the number of bags used in the second week.
First, let's convert the fractions to a common denominator. The common denominator for 10 and 10 is 10.
5 7/10 bags = 5 * 10/10 + 7/10 = 50/10 + 7/10 = 57/10 bags
7 3/10 bags = 7 * 10/10 + 3/10 = 70/10 + 3/10 = 73/10 bags
Next, subtract the number of bags used in the first week from the number of bags used in the second week:
73/10 - 57/10 = 16/10 = 1 6/10
Therefore, the baker used 1 6/10 more bags of flour in the second week than the first week.
The correct answer is B. 1 6/10 bags.
