Answer:
2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The injured player gets a salary of $2.7 million.
The minimum salary of a running back is $1.35 million.
Now, if Whalers trade the injured player, and buy players with minimum salary; that's the only way they'll get the maximum players.
Thus the amount got saved by trading the injured player = $2.7 million.
Thus, the number of players with minimum salary
= ($2.7 million/$1.35 million)
= 2.
