    Jay rolled a number of cigs yesterday and enjoyed smoking 96% of them. What's the minimum number of cigs Jay could have rolled?

    Two.

    You said he smoked 96% of them, so its plural, but you didn't specify that he smoked them completely, so I reckon he smoked all of 1 and most of the second. I reckon he's saving that last bit just in case.
