#32#

Explanation:

If Mark bought 16 packages, and there were 512 balloons in total, you can set up the equation #512-:16=?#. This is because the 512 ballons were distributed evenly among the packages, and you just need to find out how many are in each one. Solve this problem, and you get #32# balloons per package.
