Answer:

105 points

Explanation:

70= 40%

So, 7 points would be equal to 4% of the winning score.

And 140 points would be 80% of the winning score

to reach the winning score, we need another 20%

and since 4% is 7 points, then 20% is 35 points.

35 + 140 = 175 points

Remember, thats the full winning score

so 175 - 70= 105 points
