It's definitely way more than 110. This first plates are definitely not 20 pounds if those second and third are 10 and 5 respectively.
e; https://pic8.co/sh/32Dad8.png A is easily 3x as thick as B but also has a significantly increase circumference. It's at least 4x, likely 4.5x so 45lbs if B is 10 and C is 5. For it to be 110lbs while assuming the bar is 45 that leaves 70 pounds remaining. 35lb per side leaves 20 pounds. Nonstandard plate and that size is way more than 20 pounds. It's solid steel, not a bumper.
It's 40 per side at the most. 25, 10 and a 5. 125 at most, and the way she failed it tells me she had no business even attempting that weight.
This is the correct reply.

25lbs
I would agree if 'A' were merely ~ double the thickness of 'B' and not the significant increase in circumference.
A lot of the 25 lbs plates I've seen are mostly the same thickness as a 10, they just have a wider rim for ease of handling in addition to the larger diameter. If anything, I would say the smaller weights are lighter, 5 and 2.5lbs, as opposed to the bigger plate being heavier like a 45.
Also, I've known women who could bench 165+ weights. They considered themselves powerlifters and took their training pretty seriously. They were also on the "thicker" side, as opposed to a skinny, skanky roastie.
ninjatacos has it right. I miscalculated. It's 125lbs.
