    307 to 323 blocks

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The range of allowable number of blocks for a building set is the minimum numbers of blocks in a set to the maximum number of blocks in set that would not cause the set to be sent back. Since the ideal number 315 pieces and the allowed deviance is 8 blocks less or more, the allowable range is:

    315 - 8 ≤ N ≤ 315 + 8

    307 ≤ N ≤ 323.

    The range of allowable number of blocks for a building set is 307 to 323 blocks.
