Show Hint
If only one player's score changes, the new average is: \(\text{Old Average} + \frac{\text{Score Change}}{\text{Number of Players}}\).
Score change = \(100 - 80 = 20\).
New Avg = \(160 + (20/3) = 160 + 6.66 = 166.66\).
Score change = \(100 - 80 = 20\).
New Avg = \(160 + (20/3) = 160 + 6.66 = 166.66\).
