Answer:

9 buses will be needed but 9 bus will be empty there will be very small amount of fans in the 9th bus.

9 buses.
Explanation:
We divide the number of basketball fans by the number of fans that can be accommodated by the bus. We get 8.4
Since we cannot cut the bus into 0.4 we add another bus so that everyone will get to go.
Another method is
Multiply 8 buses by 34 fans. We get 272 fans will be able to go to a game.
This means that some fans will be left by the bus but our goal is to have everyone go.
And thus we need the 9th bus to carry the remaining 15 fans
