Answer:

138 packs

Step-by-step explanation:

Marcello thinks it better to have more water balloons on hand that he actually needs fo the water balloon fight, so he rounds up the number of balloons needed to 276 from 275.

Then he divides 276  by 2, obtaining 138.  He needs to buy 138 packets of balloons.  This way, he will have acquired the required 275 balloons plus 1 left over.
