Cathy works at a restaurant. On Monday, she served 10 tables with 5 people at each table. On Tuesday, she served 76 people. She wants to know how many more people she served on Tuesday than on Monday. Which two equations represent the problem?

• 10 × 5 = m

  
  

  76 × 50 = d

• 10 × 5 = m

  
  

  76 – 50 = d

• 10 × 5 = m
