P.S Don't really know if this is supposed to go in this section. Pretty sure I put it in the wrong section.If I did then could you move it to the correct section?If I didn't then you don't have to do anything. Thanks for reading! Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! total = average * number=44
Drop the lowest score and have 7 people with an average of 6. The total must be 42.
The lowest score was 44-42=2
It is B.
