ANSWER

73

Step-by-step explanation

Marcus had a debt of $120 on his credit card.

He made a payment such that $47 is remaining in the debt on his credit card.

It is important to note that a debt is best represented as a negative number since it is money owed.

So, his initial debt is written as -$120 and after the payment -$47.

So, to find the integer that represents the change in his credit card balance, we have to find the difference in the final and initial debts that he had.

That is:

Difference = -47 - (-120)

Difference = -47 + 120 => 120 - 47

Difference = $73

The integer that best represents the change is 73
