In a B+- tree where each node can hold at most four key values, a root to leaf path consists of the following nodes: A = (49, 77, 83, -), B = (7, 19, 33, 44), C = (20*, 22*, 25*, 26*) The *-marked keys signify that these are data entries in a leaf. Assume that a pointer between keys k1 and k2 points to a subtree containing keys in [k1, k2), and that when a leaf is created, the smallest key in it is copied up into its parent. A record with key value 23 is inserted into the B+- tree. The smallest key value in the parent of the leaf that contains 25* is … (Answer in integer)
