Ron's baseball team scored 270 points in the year. There are 9 players on the team. If 5 of them averaged 50 points each, how many points did the remainder average? Let's think first. Chain of thought:

The first five players scored a total of 250 points because 5 x 50 = 250. There are 4 players left because 9 - 5 = 4. The 4 remaining players scored 20 points because 270 - 250 = 20. The 4 remaining players averaged 5 points because 20 / 4 = 5.
Therefore, the answer is 5.
