Problem

Zelda played the Adventures of Math game on August 1 and scored $1700$ points. She continued to play daily over the next $5$ days. The bar chart below shows the daily change in her score compared to the day before. (For example, Zelda's score on August 2 was $1700 + 80 = 1780$ points.) What was Zelda's average score in points over the $6$ days?Screenshot 2024-11-08 1.51.51 PM.png

$\textbf{(A)} 1700\qquad\textbf{(B)} 1702\qquad\textbf{(C)} 1703\qquad\textbf{(D)}1713\qquad\textbf{(E)} 1715$

Solution

Going through the table, we see her scores over the six days were: $1700$, $1700+80=1780$, $1780-90=1690$, $1690-10=1680$, $1680+60=1740$, and $1740-40=1700$. Taking the average, we get $\frac{(1700+1780+1690+1680+1740+1700)}{6} = \boxed{\textbf{(E) } 1715}.$
