Let \( x \) be the total number of bagels produced on Saturday. According to the problem, 8% of the total bagels produced were burned, which is given as 416 bagels.
We can express this as an equation:
\[
0.08x = 416
\]
To find \( x \), divide both sides of the equation by 0.08:
\[
x = \frac{416}{0.08}
\]
Calculating that gives:
\[
x = 5200
\]
Thus, the total number of bagels produced on Saturday is **5200**.
We can express this as an equation:
\[
0.08x = 416

To find \( x \), divide both sides of the equation by 0.08:
\[
x = \frac{416}{0.08}
\]
Calculating that gives:
\[
x = 5200
\]
Thus, the total number of bagels produced on Saturday is **5200**.
