A player has to play a total of five games in Round 1 of a competition. The scores for Neave's first four games are shown. Neave will qualify for Round 2 if his average score for four of the five games is 70 or more. What is the lowest score Neave must get in the 5^th game to qualify for Round 2?

Round 1
Game	Score
1st	69
2nd	68
3rd	67
4th	56
5th	?

Lowest total score for four games to qualify
= 4 x 70
= 280

To get the lowest score in the fifth game to qualify for Round 2, we need to exclude the lowest score (56) at the 4th game in Round 1 so that the rest of the four games can be as high as possible to qualify for Round 2.

Hence, the 1st, the 2nd and the 3rd games must score a total of 280.

Score in the 5th game
= 280 - 69 - 68 - 67
= 76

Answer(s): 76
