While preparing balloons for Eva's birthday party, her mom bought 50 balloons and 1800cm³ of helium. One balloon needs 50cm³ to float high enough to touch the ceiling, and she can fill any remaining balloon with ordinary air. If she used up all of the helium and inflated every balloon, how many more balloons are touching the ceiling than not?
How many balloons will touch the ceiling? ** 50cm³ will make one balloon touch the ceiling so 1800cm³ will make 1800/50 = <<1800/50=36>>36 balloons touch the ceiling
How many balloons will not float? ** There are 50 balloons in total so 50-36 = <<50-36=14>>14 balloons will not float since they were filled with ordinary air
How many more balloons are touching the ceiling than not? ** There are 36-14 = <<36-14=22>>22 more balloons touching the ceiling than not
