Answer:

520 loaves

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find how many white loaves he baked.

Let's make a proportion.

white loaves/brown loaves= white loaves/brown loaves

He baked 3 white loaves for every 2 brown loaves. He baked x white loaves for 208 brown loaves.

3/2=x/208

Now, we have to solve for x. To do this, we have to get x by itself. x is being divided by 208. To reverse this, multiply both sides by 208

208*3/2=x/208*208

208*3/2=x

312=x

He baked 312 white loaves.

Now, we have to find the total number of loaves he baked.

To do this, add the brown loaves and the white loaves.

brown loaves+white loaves

He baked 208 brown loaves and 312 white loaves

208+312

520

He baked 520 loaves in total

Your sister would be 66.
