Answer:

There is needed around 311 balloons to fulfill Mr. Schordine’s dream of flight.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the volume of each balloon by considering the balloons as a sphere:    

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}

Where:

r: is the radius = 0.4 meters

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3} = \frac{4}{3}\pi (0.4 m)^{3} = 0.27 m^{3}

Knowing that 1 m³ of helium is able to lift about 1 kg, that Mr. Schordine weights 84 kg, and that each ballon has 0.27 m³ of helium, the number of balloons needed are:

N = \frac{1 m^{3}}{1 kg}*84 kg*\frac{1 balloon}{0.27 m^{3}} = 311.1 \: balloon              

Therefore, there is needed around 311 balloons to fulfill Mr. Schordine’s dream of flight.      

 

I hope it helps you!
