Have a wonderful day-
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
1 loaf requires 565 g of flour , then
p loaves requires 565p g of flour
100 g is required for sprinkling , then
total amount of flour = 565p + 100
Equate expression to 3700 and solve for p
565p + 100 = 3700 ( subtract 100 from both sides )
565p = 3600 ( divide both sides by 565 )
p = 6.37168.....
Thus a maximum of 6 loaves can be made
