#105    In the end of Summer archery competition, William shot 45 arrows and scored a total of 253 points. The 10 circles on the archery target are worth the following points:

outer white circle: 1 point
inner white circle: 2 points
outer black circle: 3 points
inner black circle: 4 points
outer blue circle: 5 points
inner blue circle: 6 points
outer red circle: 7 points
inner red circle: 8 points
outer yellow circle: 9 point
inner yellow circle: 10 points

William's score was 220 points after he shot 40 arrows. Please show 2 different possible combinations for William to reach his total of 253 with the remaining 5 arrows, without William shooting an arrow in the 10-point yellow circle.

Interesting Archery Fact: The first known use of bows and arrows in combat was in 2340BC by the Babylonians.
