Answer:
MAD = 1.68
Step-by-step explanation:
So easily we calculate our mean => 5 + 1 + 6 + 2 + 3 = 17
17/5 = 3.4
3.4 is our mean or average
Now we find how much each of those is away from 3.4
--> 5 - 3.4 = 1.6
3.4 - 1 = 2.4
6 - 3.4 = 2.6
3.4 - 2 = 1.4
3.4 - 3 = 0.4
1.6 + 2.4 + 2.6 + 1.4 + 0.4 / 5 =
8.4 / 5 = 1.68
Thus, our mean absolute deviation (MAD) = 1.68
Hope this helps!
