Answer:

Explanation:

Since 3 balloons can carry 24 grams of weight, you would multiply 3/24 by 3 to get 72 grams of weight with 9 balloons.

Then, you would divide 3 and 24 by 2/3 to get 16 grams of weight with 2 balloons.

Lastly, add 9/72 grams of weight with 2/16 grams of weight to get a total of "11 balloons can carry 88 grams".
