D. 11.12 Pounds

Please also include an explanation. Thanks!

the average amount of flour used each day=6.08 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Sam bought 86 pounds of flour for his bakery.

Every day he used the same amount of flour to make bakery items.

After 10 days, Sam was left with 25.2 pounds of flour.

Now we are asked to find the average pounds of flour that Sam used each day.

Total amount of flour used=86-25.2=60.8 pounds.

As he used the flour equal amount each day for 10 days.

So, the average flour used each day=

amount of flour used/ number of days=60.8/10=6.08.

the average amount of flour used each day=6.08 pounds

C

Step-by-step explanation:

So since Sam have 25.2 leftover pounds of flour, we can subtract that from 86, knowing that will be left over in the end. Next, we divide the number left. 86 - 25.2 = 60.8

Finally, divide that by 10, since there are 10 days.

We end up with 6.08 pounds.
