The least of {56, 78, 54, 21, 63, 5, 9, 24} is 5.
In Figure 1, there are 2 dimes and 2 pennies. So, the value of coins in Figure 1 is 22 cents.
In Figure 2, there are 4 dimes. So, the value of coins in Figure 2 is 40 cents.
In Figure 3, there are 4 pennies. So, the value of coins in Figure 3 is 4 cents.
In Figure 4, there are 3 dimes and 1 penny. So, the value of coins in Figure 4 is 31 cents. So, the Figure 4 has the least value.
A. Figure 1
B. Figure 2
C. Figure 3
D. Figure 4
Correct Answer: C
Step 1: The figure with the least number of sides is the one with less number of sides when compared with the other figures.
Step 2: The number of sides in Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4 are 5, 4, 3, and 6 respectively.
Step 3: Therefore, the figure with the least number of sides is Figure 3.
