Answer:

92

Explanations:

Average number of days used by the batteries = 101

Margin error = 9%


\begin{gathered} \text{Margin error = }(9)/(100)*101 \\ \text{Margin error = }9.09 \end{gathered}

Minimum average number of days = 101 - Margin error

Minimum average number of days = 101 - 9.09

Minimum average number of days = 91.91

Minimum average number of days = 92 ( to the nearest whole number)
