After judging each player’s solution, and the work they showed, which player should be named the winner of Round 3?

The winner of round 3 is Player 3 from the Yellow Team! The correct answer is 154 R13. Player 3 from the Blue Team made a mistake in their division towards the end of the problem. Near the bottom, they subtracted 109 – 96 and counted the 96 as 5 groups of 24, but this is a mistake.
