Please do this in a easy way and explain no algebra

Answer 1

Answer:

The baker baked 375 loaves of bread that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

The baker baked a total of x loaves of bread.

240 loaves were sold by the end of the day.

The baker was then left with 9/25 of the number of loaves that were baked.

We get the equation:

x-240 = 9x/25

When you solve the equation, you will see that x=375.

Therefore, the baker baked 375 loaves of bread that day.
