Question

Find the mean absolute deviation for the data set.

If necessary, round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

8, 6, 6, 18, 17, 11

Answer 1

The mean is the average, of all the scores divided by the number of scores

For this data set, the mean would be 11

You do this by calculating 6+8+6+18+17+11 divided by 6 (which is the number of scores)

This gives you an answer of 11.
