Answer: she needs a 9 from the fifth judge

Step-by-step explanation: so you have 5 judges and to get a perfect score you need 8. when you multiply the amount of judges by the score of 8 you get 40 witch is 100%, and when you add 6+8+9+8 you get 31 so there is 9 missing to get 40 so the answer is 9.
