Question

In the data set below, what is the mean absolute deviation?4461526If the answer is a decimal, round it to the nearest tenth.mean absolute deviation (MAD):

Answer 1

I assume that the numbers are: 4,4,6,1,5,2,6
If so, then the MAD is 1.43

To find the MAD, you first find the mean of the list. It is 4.
Then find the absolute difference of each number from the mean.

Those values are: 0,0,2,3,1,2,2
Now find the mean of those numbers and you have about: 1.43
