217 active cards
B
128 active cards
C
190 active cards

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Active card count equals beginning active cards plus issued cards less returned cards.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

217 active cards is above the supported result for fuel-card administration; it likely adds an unsupported amount or compares the wrong financial base.

Option B: 128 active cards

128 active cards is below the supported result for fuel-card administration; it likely uses the wrong base, period, or account bucket.

Option D: 89 active cards

89 active cards is below the supported result for fuel-card administration; it likely uses the wrong base, period, or account bucket.

Memory Technique
