Insufficient data to solve the problem.
If the mean for the first 5 games is 100, the only conclusion that we can
arrive at, is that the TOTAL for the 5 games = 5*100 = 500.
(Since mean = total / number of games)
This does not give enough information to find out the number of points in the
5th game alone.
Please check the question :)
