Question

What is the mean absolute deviation of 1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,3,4,4,5,6

Answer 1

8

Explanation:

step 1.
1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1 = 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 8

2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 10

3 + 0 = 3

4 + 4 = 8

5 + 0 = 5

6 + 0 = 6

Step 2.

8 + 10 = 18

18 + 3 = 21

21 + 8 = 29

29 + 5 = 34

34 + 6 = 40

40/6 = 8

This is because if you added 6 + 6 eight times, you would get 40.
