Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Score when there were 4 innings left = 17 to 6

Kim's team = 6 ; opposition team = 17

Opposition didn't score any point in the last 4 innings

Kim's team scored same number of points per inning and also won with the most points

Minimum Number of points Kim's team could have scored per inning :

Let number of points scored in each of the last 4 innings = p

Since they also won eventually:

Then

4p + initial points > opposition point

4p + 6 > 17

4p > 17 - 6

4p > 11

p > 11/4

p > 2.75

Hence, the minimum number of points Kim's team could have scored per inning in the last 4 would be 3( nearest whole number)
