35 14
48 1
64 15
<u>Sum </u> 34
Absolute mean deviation = 34/5= 6.8
<u>Team 2</u>
Finding the mean
Points Absolute deviation from the mean
27 15.8
55 12.2
53 10.2
38 4.8
41 1.8
<u>Sum 44.8 </u>
Absolute deviation from the mean = 44.8/5 =8.96
Solution
Difference in mean absolute deviation of the two teams = 8.96-6.8 = 2.16
