He set aside 32 for the bake sale, and put 80 in a container.

Answer: He put 80 biscuits  in the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to multiply the number of batches by the number of biscuits in each batch.

  • 8 x 14 = 112 biscuits baked

Now, we have to calculate the number he sets aside, by multiplying the number of batches by the number of biscuits he sets aside per batch.

  • 8 x 4 = 32 biscuits set aside

Finally we subtract the total number of biscuits sets aside to the total number of biscuits baked.

  • 112 -32 =80  

He put 80 biscuits  in the container.
