Answer:

Explanation:

The statement provided says that the "lastscore" (which presumably refers to the last score) on the college entrance exam is 1180. Assuming that "average" refers to the mean score of the entrance exam, we can make the following conclusion:

If the last score on the college entrance exam is 1180, and we assume that this is the same as the average score, then it must be true that:

The minimum score on the college entrance exam is 1180.

In other words, no student can have a score lower than 1180 if the last score (which is assumed to be the same as the average) is 1180. This is based on the assumption that "average" refers to the mean score of all the students who took the exam.
