To find the average amount of flour in the bag each day, we need to find the total change in the amount of flour in the bag and divide it by the number of days.
The total change in the amount of flour in the bag is the initial weight of the bag minus the final weight of the bag. The initial weight of the bag is 15 pounds, and the final weight of the bag is 0 pounds (since all the flour is used in 4 days).
Therefore, the total change in the amount of flour in the bag is 15 - 0 = 15 pounds.
To find the average amount of flour in the bag each day, we divide the total change in the amount of flour in the bag by the number of days.
Average amount of flour in the bag each day = Total change in amount of flour / Number of days
= 15 pounds / 4 days
= 3.75 pounds/day
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the average amount of flour in the bag changes by approximately 3.75 pounds each day.
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? Round to the nearest hundredth
