The smallest amount that Caleb could have converted will be £ 59.

We are given that:

At shop A, Gavin converted £ 30 into € 36.60

At shop B, Amna converted £ 73 into € 86.14

Also, Caleb converted some pounds and got € 71.98.

Rate of conversion at shop A is:

£ 30 = € 36.60

£ 1 = € 36.60 / 30

£ 1 = € 1.22

rate of conversion at shop B is:

£ 73 = € 86.14

£ 1 = € 86.14 / 73

£ 1 = € 1.18

Now, we can see that the rate of conversion is more at shop A.

So, the smallest amount that Caleb might have converted will be:

Pounds = € 71.98 / € 1.22

Pounds = £ 59

Therefore, the smallest amount that Caleb could have converted will be £ 59.
