Answer:
The number of whole loaves at each location = 5 loaves
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is essentially testing your ability to use simple division within remainders, and the number of whole loaves is calculated as follows:
Numer of loaves of bread = 16
number of locations = 3
next, we will divide the number of loaves by the number of locations since Olivia placed an equal number of loaves in 3 different locations:
[tex]= \frac{16}{3} = 5\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
This means that there will be 5 whole loaves and 1 loaf that will be divided equally into the three places.
Therefore, the number of whole loaves at each location = 5 loaves
but remember that there will be a remainder of 1 loaf.
