Answer 2

Answer:

35.25

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 data:

262, 313, 393, and 323

The formula for MAD (mean absolute deviation) = $\frac{SUM(|x_{i}-XBar|)}{n}$

Where x_i are the each individual values (stated)

XBar is the average value

n is the number of data

First, let's find XBar, or the average. We add up all the 4 numbers and divide by 4 to get:

XBar = (262+313+393+323)/4=322.75

Now, let's calculate MAD:

MAD = $\frac{|262-322.75|+|313-322.75|+|393-322.75|+|323-322.75|}{4}\\=35.25$

MAD = 35.25
