To solve this problem, we need to perform integer division, which will give us the number of bunches of 8 balloons that can be made, and a remainder that represents the number of balloons left over.
We can perform this calculation by dividing the total number of balloons (1,027) by 8:
1,027 รท 8 = 128 with a remainder of 3
This means that the party planner can make 128 bunches of balloons, each with 8 balloons, and there will be 3 balloons left over that cannot be made into a complete bunch.
Therefore, the answer to the problem is that the party planner makes 128 bunches of balloons and has 3 balloons left over.
For a gala, a party planner has 1,027 balloons to divide into bunches of 8 balloons. The party planner makes as many bunches as possible.
How many bunches of balloons does the party planner make, and how many balloons are left over?
