What is the Mean Absolute Deviation or MAD for each city?

City A: 4, 3.5, 5, 5.5, 4, 2

City B: 5, 6, 3.5, 5.5, 4, 6

Here are the steps to find the MAD

How to find the Mad?
The steps to find the MAD include: 1. find the mean (average). 2. find the difference between each data value and the mean. 3. take the absolute value of each difference. 4. find the mean (average) of these differences

A: ⅚

B: ⅚

Step-by-step explanation:

City A: 4, 3.5, 5, 5.5, 4, 2

Mean: sum/n

= 24/6 = 4

|x - mean|: 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 0 , 2

MAD = sum|x - mean|/n

5/6 = 0.833

City B: 5, 6, 3.5, 5.5, 4, 6

Mean: 30/6 = 5

|x - mean|: 0, 1, 1.5, 0.5, 1, 1

MAD = sum|x - mean|/n

5/6 = 0.833

step-by-step explanation:

divide, then simplify your answer.

1. make -15.66 ÷   5.8 a fraction. then divide.

2. simplify.  

3. final answer.
