Answer:
There were 240 more credit card sales than cash sales.
Step-by-step explanation:
By using the ratio 8:3 I was able to determine that if there were 144 cash sales that would mean that there would be 384 credit card sales. However, the question asks "How many <u>more</u> credit card sales were there than cash sales?" Meaning that we need to find the difference. 384-144= 240.
This means that there were 240 <u>more</u> credit card sales than cash sales.

Answer:
the original number is greater
Step-by-step explanation:
1. let 1x be your starting number
2. therefore, 0.5 * 1x = 0.5x ( amount after you decreased it by 50%)
3. then increase: 0.5x * 1.5 = 0.75x (amount after you increased it by 50%)
4. 0.75x < 1x (this means that the original number is larger than the one you decreased and then increased)
The correct answer is maybe 3
Okay so a dilation means that you would multiply the area by your scale factor. 103 times 3 is 309. Your answer is 309
