Underscore is that line lowered
1) 40-25= 15
2) 15/3=5
3) each gift costs $5
Then to check:
1) 5x3=15
2) 25+15=40
Therefore p=5
The remaining cost is $66 after 20% discount and 10% service fee
The given number above, 0.002353, may be rounded to only two significant figures by adding 1 to the 3 which is in the fourth place of the decimal position. This becomes, 0.0024. Addition of 1 was done because the number that follows 3 in the original number is 5.
We are given

So, smallest x-value is 1

So, smallest y-value is 3
now, we can find least possible average
so, least possible average value is



So,
The least possible average value is 2.........Answer
