Answer :
The Americans won the Battle of Saratoga due to a few factors. In the British army, General John Burgoyne was coming down into Albany from Canada with his troops, while Sir William Howe was supposed to be coming north from New Jersey and New York City. They were going to surround and defeat the Americans. However, instead of going to Albany, Howe attacked Philadelphia. At the same time, Burgoyne's supply line to Canada was becoming less reliable. This lack of both man power and supplies on the British side helped the Americans win the Battle of Saratoga.
It ended the British threat and convinced Europeans that the Americans had a chance of winning the war.
