Solution

Solution Steps

To find the bowler's average score, we need to sum all the scores and then divide by the number of games played.

Step 1: Summing the Scores

To find the total score, we sum the individual scores from the 5 games: \[ 143 + 156 + 172 + 133 + 167 = 771 \]

Step 2: Counting the Number of Games

The number of games played is: \[ 5 \]

Step 3: Calculating the Average Score

The average score is calculated by dividing the total score by the number of games: \[ \text{Average Score} = \frac{771}{5} = 154.2 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{\frac{771}{5}}\)
