A total of 90 bricks were laid that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of bricks laid in one hour = 27

This represents 30% of total bricks laid that day.

Let,

x be the total number of bricks laid that day.

30% of x = 27

[tex]\frac{30}{100}*x=27\\0.3x=27[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 0.3

[tex]\frac{0.3x}{0.3}=\frac{27}{0.3}\\x=90[/tex]

A total of 90 bricks were laid that day.
