Answer:

3 loaves of bread

Step-by-step explanation:

We must divide [tex]2\frac12[/tex] by [tex]\frac34[/tex] and take an integer part of this dividing.

[tex]2\frac12:\frac34=\frac52:\frac34=\frac52\cdot\frac43=\frac{20}{6}=\frac{10}3=3\frac13[/tex]

The integer part of a mixed fraction [tex]3\frac13[/tex] is 3, and this is the answer.
