Explanation:
It is the average (mean) of the absolute values of the differences between a set of numbers and their mean.
Example: consider the set {1, 2, 4}. The mean is computed in the usual way: the sum divided by the number of contributors —
mean = (1 + 2 + 4)/3 = 7/3 = 2 1/3
Then the deviations are ...
1 -2 1/3 = -1 1/3 . . . . the absolute value of this is 1 1/3
2 -2 1/3 = -1/3 . . . . . the absolute value of this is 1/3
4 -2 1/3 = 1 2/3 . . . . the absolute value of this is 1 2/3
The mean of these absolute values is their sum divided by the number of them:
(1 1/3 +1/3 +1 2/3)/3 = (3 1/3)/3 = 1 1/9
The MAD of {1, 2, 4} is 1 1/9.
_____
Your graphing calculator or spreadsheet program may have a function that will calculate this for you.
Conversion factor: 1 pint = 0.5 quarts or 2 pint = 1 quart
multiplying both sides by 8
8(1 quart) = 8 (2 pints)
8 quarts = 16 pints
so she will need a total of 16 pints to fill the pot. she already has 1 so... 16 - 1 = 15 more pints.
and looking at the 1st conversion factor 1 pint = 0.5 quarts
15 (1 pint) = 15 (0.5 quart)
15 pints = 7.5 quarts
