There are four members in one household. Each member consumes 3 slices of bread during breakfast and 2 slices of bread for snacks. A loaf of bread has 12 slices. How many days will five loaves of bread last in this family?
Reason slowly and give your answer.
3
A total of 3 + 2 = 5 slices of bread are consumed by each member every day.

So a family consumes a total of 5 x 4 = 20 slices of bread every day.

Five loaves of bread have 5 x 12 = 60 slices of bread.

Thus, the 5 loaves of bread last for 60 / 20 = 3 days.

.

Therefore, the answer is 3
