They made more at the spring concert because at the fall concert, they made 9/8 LESS then the spring concert. At the spring concert, they said they made 9/8 AS MUCH money. That indicates that they made more at the spring concert than the fall concert

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Amount of money made by School Orchestra at the fall concert=$ x

Then, Amount of money made by School Orchestra at the Spring concert

=9/8 as much money as they made at their fall concert

= 9x/8

=1.125x

Since, $1.125 x > $x

So, they made more money at Spring concert than Fall Concert.
