    The best estimate of the stock's post-split price is $53.33

    Explanation:

    Stock split implies that the number of shares is increased whereas the price of the share is also reduced.

    In other words, 3 stocks after the stock split now command the price of one stock prior to stock-split.

    The price prior to the stock split is $160

    the stock split is 3-1

    price of a stock after stock split=$160*1/3=$53.33
