If the bakery sold 1,000 loaves in that month, select for Whole wheat loaves the number of whole wheat loaves sold, and select for Rye loaves the number of rye loaves sold in that month. Make only two selections, one in each column.

Official Solution:
The bakery sold 1,000 loaves in a month, divided among whole wheat, sourdough, and rye.
Sourdough accounted for 40% of total sales:
• Sourdough loaves = 0.4 * 1000 = 400
Sourdough loaves exceeded rye loaves by 150:
• Rye loaves = 400 - 150 = 250.
Whole wheat loaves:
• Whole Wheat loaves = 1000 - 400 - 250 = 350.
Correct answer:
Whole wheat loaves "350"
Rye loaves "250"
