To find the average amount of flour in the bag that changes each day, we start with the total amount of flour used and divide it by the number of days.

  1. Total amount of flour used: The restaurant uses 15 pounds of flour in 4 days.

  2. Average amount used per day:

    \[ \text{Average amount used per day} = \frac{\text{Total amount of flour}}{\text{Number of days}} = \frac{15 \text{ pounds}}{4 \text{ days}} = 3.75 \text{ pounds per day} \]

So, the average amount of flour in the bag changes by 3.75 pounds each day.

Thus, the answer is 3.75 pounds.
