A nice riddle, mathematical riddle.
Assuming a turtle winning means the declared winner is the weaker one actually won over the stronger one. In this context, the turtle winner is the one who has a lesser number of favourable votes.
The given rules for the points are as follows:
1. Point for the first choice must be greater than or equal to that of the second choice.
2. All points must be positive whole numbers.
Let's suppose we have Henry against Tim.
Henry is favourite of the voters and is the leading candidate, according to popular polls.
Tim is an excellent manipulator, sly, and everybody knows this.
On polling day, the vote count came out as follows (in point counts)
Henry Tim
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
10 1 (Henry's own vote)
1 100 (Tim's own vote)
------------------
17 107 TOTAL POINTS
So Tim the turtle was declared winner of the race, and since everything was according to rule, even a recount of the votes did not change the results.
Be aware, voting by districts (instead of popular votes) also exhibits a similar problem.
Ones place.

Answer:
B 244
Step-by-step explanation:
6^3 +7*4
PEMDAS says exponents first
216 + 7*4
Then multiply and divide
216 +28
Now we add and subtract
244
Well, first of all, the first statement (ABC = ADC) looks like it just says
that the two halves of the little square ... each side of the diagonal ...
are congruent. That's no big deal, and it's no help in answering the
question.
The effect of the dilation is that all the DIMENSIONS of the square
are doubled ... each side of the square becomes twice as long.
Then, when you multiply (length x width) to get the area, you'd have
Area = (2 x original length) x (2 x original width)
and that's
the same as (2 x 2) x (original length x original width)
= (4) x (original area) .
Here's an easy, useful factoid to memorize:
-- Dilate a line (1 dimension) by 'x' times . . . multiply the length by x¹
-- Dilate a shape (2 dimensions) by 'x' . . . multiply area by x²
-- Dilate a solid (3 dimensions) by 'x' . . . multiply volume by x³
And that's all the dimensions we have in our world.

Oh, BTW . . .
-- Dilate a point (0 dimensions) by 'x' . . . multiply it by x⁰ (1)
