To find out how many bagels were produced on Saturday, we can set up the equation based on the information given.
We know that 8% of the total amount of bagels produced equals 416 bagels. We can express this mathematically as:
\[
0.08 \times \text{Total Bagels} = 416
\]
To find the total number of bagels produced, we can rearrange this equation:
\[
\text{Total Bagels} = \frac{416}{0.08}
\]
Now, performing the division:
\[
\text{Total Bagels} = \frac{416}{0.08} = 5200
\]
Therefore, the total number of bagels produced on Saturday was **5,200**.
So, the answer is **5,200**.
