Answer:

135

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total score obtained by Peter, Jan and Maxim = 269

Let :

Peter's score = x

Jan's score = y

Maxim's score = z

x + y + z = 269

x > (y + z)

For x to be greater Than y + z ;

Then x > (269 / 2) ; x > 134.5

The least possible x score is 135

Hence, Peter's least possible score is 135.
