good morning.

should easy task. remove libreoffice, remove ppa, install openoffice.

1: remove libreoffice packages software centre.

2: in software centre, go edit -> software sources. in other software tab, remove or untick libreoffice entries. exit software centre.

3: in terminal, run following...

code:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install openoffice
this should work. on mobile device right now, apologize if missed or vague. feel free ask further assistance

also, recommend grabbing libreoffice official site. has ms office compatibility enhancements on openoffice. ppa never worked me.
