Hello!

Answer:

Mean Absolute Deviation: 1.4

____________________________________________________

Explanation:

Mean:

Add them together then divide by the amount of numbers in the data set:

2 + 4 + 0 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 5 = 24

24 ÷ 10 = 2.4

Absolute Deviation:

Find the distance of each value from the mean:

2 - 0.4

4 - 1.6

0 - 2.4

3 - 0.6

4 - 1.6

1 - 1.4

3 - 0.6

1 - 1.4

1 - 1.4

5 - 2.6

Now, add these new numbers up at divide by 10:

0.4 + 1.6 + 2.4 + 0.6 + 1.6 + 1.4 + 0.6 + 1.4 + 1.4 + 2.6 = 14

14 ÷ 10 = 1.4

Have a good day!
