A Correct answer
Explanation

Sum of 5 numbers = 555. Sum of first two = 2 * 75 = 150. Third number = 115. Sum of last two = 555 - 150 - 115 = 290. Average of last two = 290 / 2 = 145.

AI explanation

The sum of the first two numbers is 2 times 75 = 150. The sum of the last two numbers is 555 minus 150 minus 115 = 290. The average of the last two numbers is 290 / 2 = 145.
