Answer:

7 whole loaves of bread.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are total of 6 locations and each location needs to have the same number of whole loaves of bread we simply need to divide the number of mini-loaves of banana bread by the number of locations like so...

45 / 6 = 7.5

As we can see by the mathematical expression above 45 loaves of bread can be divided into 6, giving each location 7.5 loaves of bread but since each location needs only whole loaves then that would mean that each location would get 7 whole loaves of bread.
