Using it's concept, it is found that the mean absolute deviation of 2.8 means that the heights differ from the mean by an average of 2.8 inches.

<h3>What is the mean absolute deviation of a data-set?</h3>

  • The mean of a data-set is given by the sum of all observations divided by the number of observations.
  • The mean absolute deviation of a data-set is the sum of the absolute value of the difference between each observation and the mean, divided by the number of observations.
  • The mean absolute deviation represents the average by which the values differ from the mean.

In this problem, the mean is given by:

M = (65 + 58 + 64 + 61 + 67)/5 = 63.

Hence the mean absolute deviation is given by:

MAD = (|65-63| + |58-63| + |64-63| + |61-63| + |67-63|)/5 = 14/5 = 2.8.

The mean absolute deviation of 2.8 means that the heights differ from the mean by an average of 2.8 inches.
