So Since $303 collected, if 151 people came, each gave the min of$2, the amount comes up to 151x2 = $302. That means 150 people gave$2, with one person who gave $3. Important to note that the requirement is that anybody can give more than$2, and not less than $2. So if it was 152, then the amount collected at the very least would be =152x2 =$304. Which already is more than $303. It is not possible that 151 gave$2, and the 152nd person gave $1. Each person needs to give AT LEAST$2.
