Answer:

Part 1: Number of extra round balloons that long balloons = 12 balloons

Part 2 : Leftover blown-up balloons = 247 balloons

Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below:

A clown bought 5 bags of round balloons with 24 balloons in each bag. the clown also bought 3 bags of long balloons with 36 balloons in each bag.

Part 1

How many more round balloons than long balloons did the clown buy?

Part 2 out of 2

The clown also bought 3 bags of heart-shaped balloons with 14 balloons in each bag. when the clown blew up all of the round, long, and heart-shaped balloons, 23 balloons burst. How many blown-up balloons were left? explain your answer.

Explanation:

Step 1 : Finding the total number of each balloon

Round balloon = 5 × 24 = 120 balloons

Long balloons = 3 × 36 = 108 balloons

Heart-shaped balloons = 3 × 14 = 42 balloons.

Part 1:

Number of extra round balloons that long balloons = 120 - 108

Number of extra round balloons that long balloons = 12 balloons

Part 2:

Total number of balloons = 120 + 108 + 42 = 270 balloons.

Number of burst balloons = 23

Leftover blown-up balloons = 270 - 23 Leftover blown-up balloons = 247 balloons
