Answer 2

Answer:

MAD = 1.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

MAD is the Mean Absolute Deviation.

The MAD is a measure of the spread of the data.

The mean of these numbers is (1 + 4 + 5 + 6) / 4

= 16/4 = 4.

Now you subtract this from the individual values and take the absolute values:

1 - 4 = -3 (absolute value = 3).

4-4 = 0

5-4 = 1

6-4 = 2.

Adding 0+1+2+3 = 6.

The MAD = 6 / 4 = 1.5.
