[tex] \frac{666}{888}= \frac{3}{4} [/tex]

[tex] 12* \frac{3}{4}=9[/tex]

Answer: He should pack 9 elf bread for a 12 day trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, The number of loaves of el bread he used to pack for 8 days trip = 6

⇒ The number of loaves of el bread he used to pack for 1 days trip = [tex]\frac{6}{8}[/tex]

⇒ The  number of loaves of el bread he used to pack for 12 days trip

[tex]=12\times \frac{6}{8}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{72}{8}=9[/tex]

Hence, he should pack 9 elf bread for a 12 day trip.
