Let's represent the number of batches Sarah made as "x".
Since each batch makes 75 biscuits, "x" batches will make a total of 75x biscuits.
Sarah's friend gave her an additional 60 biscuits, so the total number of biscuits Sarah has is 75x + 60.
According to the problem, this total is 360, so we can set up the equation:
75x + 60 = 360
Now, we can solve for "x":
75x = 360 - 60
75x = 300
x = 300/75
x = 4
Therefore, Sarah made 4 batches of biscuits.
Sarah is baking biscuits for a bake sale. Each batch makes 75 biscuits and her friend give her another 60 biscuits. She ends up with 360 biscuits total for the big sale use algebra Soffer how many batches she may.
