Answer:

80 %  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let G₇= games won in 2007

In 2008

G₈ = G₇ + 20 % of G₇

    = G₇ + 0.20G₇

    = G₇(1 + 0.20)

    =1.20G₇

In 2009

G₉ = G₈ + 50 % of G₈

    = G₈ + 0.50G₈

    = G₈(1 + 0.50)

    = 1.50G₈     Substitute the value of G₈

    = 1.50(1.20G₇)

    = 1.80G₇

    = G₇(1 + 0.80)

    = G₇ + 0.80G₇

In 2009, the team won 80 % more games than in 2007.
