Question

A camping goods store has 5 models of waterproof flashlights. The 5 models sell for $23, $29, $14, $26, and $18. What is the mean absolute deviation of the prices? Round to the nearest cent, if necessary.

Answer 1

FIND THE AVERAGE
WHICH IS 6.11 OR 6
FIND THE DISTANCE OF EACH VALUE FROM 6:
17, 23, 8, 20, AND 12
ADD ALL OF THOSE NUMBERS AND DIVIDE BY 6
MEAN DEVIATION = 13.33 OR 13 3/9
