Siara is baking biscuits for a bake sale. Each batch makes 75 biscuits, and her friend gives her another 60 biscuits. She ends up with 360 biscuits total for the bake sale. Use algebra to solve for how many batches she made.

Respuesta :

Answer:

She makes 4 batches of biscuits.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of batches will will be represented by x. The equation is:

75x + 60 = 360

First you subtract 60 from both sides:

75x + 60 - 60 = 360 - 60

75x = 300

Then you divide both sides by 75

75x/75 = 300/75

Simplify:

x = 4
