The lowest score you can earn on the next test and still achieve an average of at least an 88 is 107

Mean is the average of numbers.

Mean = sum of data/sample size

Let the lowest score be "x" such that;

Mean = 74+78+90+91+x/5

88 = 74+78+90+91+x/5

88(5) = 74+78+90+91+x

440 = 74+78+90+91+x

440 = 333 + x

x = 440 - 333

x = 107

Hence the lowest score you can earn on the next test and still achieve an average of at least an 88 is 107
