Final answer:

The answer explains how to find the difference in the number of bags packed by two groups.


Explanation:

To solve this word problem, we need to find the difference between the number of bags packed by the second group and the first group.

First group: 12,225 bags

Second group: 15,340 bags

To find how many more bags were packed by the second group, we subtract the number of bags packed by the first group from the second group: 15,340 - 12,225 = 3,115 bags

Therefore, the second group packed 3,115 more bags than the first group.
