How many slices of bread to a loaf?

Typically, a standard sliced bread loaf contains between 18 to 22 slices. However, the exact number of slices can vary depending on the brand, the size of the loaf, and the preferences of the baker. Also, some specialty loaves may have a different number of slices, like a sandwich loaf which might contain 16 slices or a larger artisan loaf which might have fewer slices.
