Answer:

The amount of butter used by baker this month is 294 kilograms.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of butter used last month by the baker = 210 kilograms

Now, according to the question:

The amount of butter used this month

= Previous months's amount +  40% of previous month's usage

Calculating 40% of 210 kg:

[tex]\frac{40}{100} \times 210 = 84[/tex]

⇒40% of 210 kilograms  = 84 kilograms

⇒ The amount of butter used this month  

= 210 kg +  84 kg = 294 kg

Hence,the amount of butter used by baker this month is 294 kilograms.
