Daniel eats 5 and 1/2 loaves of bread in one week. He eats 2 slices of bread each weekday (Monday to Friday) which is 10 slices, and 4 slices of bread each day of the weekend (Saturday and Sunday) which is 8 slices. 10 + 8 = 18 slices, and 18 slices divided by 12 slices per loaf is 1.5 loaves, which is 5 and 1/2 loaves.
