1. We start with 240 loaves of bread at the beginning of Monday. 2. On Monday, the bakery sold $\frac{1}{4}$ of the loaves, so the number of loaves sold is: $$ 240 \times \frac{1}{4} = 60 $$ 3. The remaining loaves after Monday are: $$ 240 - 60 = 180 $$ 4. On Tuesday, the bakery sold $\frac{1}{3}$ of the remaining 180 loaves, so the number of loaves sold is: $$ 180 \times \frac{1}{3} = 60 $$ 5. The remaining loaves after Tuesday are: $$ 180 - 60 = 120 $$ 6. On Wednesday, the bakery sold $\frac{2}{5}$ of the remaining 120 loaves, so the number of loaves sold is: $$ 120 \times \frac{2}{5} = 48 $$ 7. The remaining loaves after Wednesday are: $$ 120 - 48 = 72 $$ **Answer: There are 72 loaves left after Wednesday.**
