Chez Moi makes fresh biscuits on Saturday and Sunday. It takes 20 minutes to bake a batch of biscuits. Each biscuit pan holds 24 biscuits. Two pans can fit into the oven to bake at the same time. Chez Moi owns 6 biscuit pans and has one oven to use for the biscuits.
What is the largest number of biscuits Chez Moi can bake in one morning between 6 a.m. and 8 a.m.? (Hint: assume the pans can be washed and filled with batter when they are not baking in time to be baked immediately, and that the first batch is ready to go by 6 a.m. In other words, there is no wasted time between one baking session and the next.)
