The correct answer is D. Since the average score is 105, and the boundary limits are +- 20 points, then the needed score for tutorial would have to be less than or equal to 85, and for extension activities, it would have to be greater than or equal to 125. Mathematically, it is shown as: <span> p ≤ 85 or p ≥ 125</span>
