Answer 1

To find out how many pounds of flour the bakery uses each month, you can multiply the daily usage of flour by the number of days the bakery is open:

Daily usage of flour: 48 pounds Days open each month: 28 days

Monthly usage of flour = Daily usage × Days open Monthly usage of flour = 48 pounds/day × 28 days = 1,344 pounds

So, the bakery uses 1,344 pounds of flour each month.
