• A. $\$15$.
  
• B. $\$16$
  
• C. $\$17$
  
• D. $\$14$
  

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\$15$.


Let, $M$ represent the money she saved for buying clothes.
Given, $M$ is a number that is at least 15 which means the minimum value of the number $M$ is $15$.

Hence, $M$ can have any value which is less than or equal to $15$.

Representing the above expression in mathematical inequality expression:
$M\le 15$
Hence, minimum amount of money required is $\$15$.
