A player has to play a total of five games in Round 2 of a competition. The scores for Fabian's first four games are shown. Fabian will qualify for Round 3 if his average score for four of the five games is 30 or more. What is the lowest score Fabian must get in the 5^th game to qualify for Round 3?

Round 2
Game	Score
1st	26
2nd	28
3rd	27
4th	21
5th	?

Lowest total score for four games to qualify
= 4 x 30
= 120

To get the lowest score in the fifth game to qualify for Round 3, we need to exclude the lowest score (21) at the 4th game in Round 2 so that the rest of the four games can be as high as possible to qualify for Round 3.

Hence, the 1st, the 2nd and the 3rd games must score a total of 120.

Score in the 5th game
= 120 - 26 - 28 - 27
= 39

Answer(s): 39
