Question

What conclusions can you draw by comparing the mean and MAD repairs per vehicle for each type of Vehicle

Answer 1

The mean would tell you the average number of repairs per vehicle type. It is the total amount of repairs divided by the total number of vehicles.

The mean absolute deviation (MAD) describes how close the values are typically to the mean. It is an average of the distances the individual points are from the mean. Basically, it tells how spread out the data is.
