Answer:

188 balloons

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to divide the amount he collected altogether by the price of each balloon that he sold to find out how many balloons he sold:

9632 / 86 = 112 balloons

She sold 112 balloons.

We know that she threw 76 balloons away, therefore, the number of balloons she bought was:

112 + 76 = 188 balloons
