    Answer: 36

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the no. of biscuits be x

    Peanuts will be 1/3x

    So,

    1/3x + 12 + 12 = x

    1/3x + 24 = x

    x + 72 = 3x

    x-3x = - 72

    x = 72/2 = 36

    Peanut biscuits will be 1/3 * 36 = 12

    Total no. of biscuits baked were 12+12+12 = 36
