Question

12. The average bowling score of the 5-member in Regional High School bowling team is 128. If all the members of the team get the same score except for one, who bowls a 160, what is the score of the rest of the players? (A) 32 (B) 96 (C) 120 (D) 144​

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

The average is the total of the scores divided by 5.

128 x 5 Gives us the total scores of 640. I know that one bowler had a score of 160. I will subtract that from the total of 640. 640-160 = 480. Since the 4 bowlers left, all had the same score, I will divide 480 by 4 to get 120
