Answer 1

Adding them all and dividing them by three, we get the average of 145, which is 16 points more than his previous average.

Answer:

16 higher

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of a set of number is the sum of the numbers divided by the number of numbers given. To get how many higher is his average for these games, we must find the average for the games first. the average for the games

= (124 + 150 + 161)/3

= 435/3

= 145

If lamars previous bowlimg average was 129, the difference

= 145 - 129

= 16
