I am trying to write a simple BASIC program on an old Apple llc computer, but I cannot figure out how to format this blank floppy disc so that I can use it to save a program onto it. Can anyone help me?

Next time try providing more details. What exactly happens when you try formatting the floppy disk? What errors do you get?
Eitherway, after some research try checking out these links
^^ An old apple thread talking about floppy disks,
Or if you have a windows computer you may try using that machine to format the flopy disk
https://howto.org/how-to-format-a-floppy-disk/
If all else fails, (and this is where more details would have been helpful) try buying USB floppy disk drive? Something like this? https://www.amazon.com/External-Floppy-Portable-Windows-Required/dp/B00RXEWOAA/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=usb+floppy+drive&qid=1645624124&sr=8-3
