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..)(1 point)%0D%0A pounds

Answer 1

To find the average amount of flour used per day, you can use the following formula:

\[ \text{Average amount of flour used per day} = \frac{\text{Total amount of flour}}{\text{Number of days}} \]

In this case, the total amount of flour is 15 pounds, and it is consumed over 4 days:

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

Thus, the average amount of flour in the bag changes by 3.75 pounds each day (rounded to the nearest hundredth, it remains 3.75 pounds).
