Answer:

160 balloons

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: State what is known

She blew up 24 balloons

She only inflated 15%

We want to find the total amount of balloons

Let the total balloons equal "x"

Step 2: Write you equation

[tex]0.15x=24\\\frac{0.15x}{0.15} =\frac{24}{0.15} \\x = 160[/tex]

Therefore there are 160 balloons in total
