A restaurant uses a 15-pound bag of flour in 4 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?

Answer 1

To find the average amount of flour used each day from a 15-pound bag over 4 days, we can divide the total amount of flour by the number of days.

1. We have a total of 15 pounds of flour.
2. The duration is 4 days.

Now we perform the calculation:

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

Therefore, the average amount of flour in the bag decreases by 3.75 pounds each day.

So the answer is that the average amount of flour in the bag changes by 3.75 pounds each day.
