The answer is "$25,000"
Illinois requires at least $25,000 in liability coverage for the injury or death of one person in a crash. The trap is $20,000; that is the property-damage minimum printed one line below in the same list, and learners swap the two numbers because they sit stacked in bullets.
The traps in the wrong answers
B. $10,000
This answer falls short of the manual's stated minimum by fifteen thousand dollars. It reaches for a smaller round number a driver may have carried in from a jurisdiction with lower limits or an outdated figure.
C. $20,000
That figure is the property-damage minimum, not the bodily-injury minimum. This answer swaps two bullets printed one line apart in the same list, because the numbers are close and the labels blur on a quick read.
D. $50,000
That figure is the multi-person injury minimum, not the single-person minimum. This answer applies the higher multi-person cap to a single injured person, because it's the biggest injury number on the manual page and feels safer to pick.
