Answer:

36 loaves

Step-by-step explanation:

The measuring cup can hold 27 in³ of flour, and his flour can fill the measuring cup 120 time. Hence, the amount of flour available is:

Amount of flour = 120 × volume of measuring cup = 120 × 27 in³ = 3240 in³

1 in³ = 0.4 oz

[tex]3240 \ in^3=3240\ in*\frac{0.4\ oz}{in^3}=1296\ oz\\ \\[/tex]

Each leaf of bread needs 36 oz of flour

[tex]1296\ oz=1296\ oz*\frac{1\ leaf}{36\ oz} =36\ loaves[/tex]

This means that Bobby can make up to 36 loaves bread
