What is the mean absolute deviation for the set of data below?

2, 8, 10, 16

the mean absolute deviation by definition is:

M. A. D = Sum of ldata value - meanl

Where,

Mean = (2 + 8 + 10 + 16) / (4)

Mean = 9

ldata value - meanl:

l2 - 9l = 7

l8 - 9l = 1

l10 - 9l = 1

l16 - 9l = 7

M. A. D = 7 + 1 + 1 + 7

M. A. D = 16

Answer:

the mean absolute deviation for the set of data below is:

M. A. D = 16
