Later Mr. Ramos discovered that there was a scoring error on one of the questions. He regraded the tests, awarding some of the students 5 extra points, which increased the median test score to 85. What is the minimum number of students who received extra points?(Note that the median test score equals the average of the 2 scores in the middle if the 20 test scores are arranged in increasing order.)<spanclass=′latex−bold′>(A)</span> 2<spanclass=′latex−bold′>(B)</span> 3<spanclass=′latex−bold′>(C)</span> 4<spanclass=′latex−bold′>(D)</span> 5<spanclass=′latex−bold′>(E)</span> 6 AMC 82022 AMC 8
