I am given 9 15 28 10 and 8 what is the mean absolute deviation for this data?
The mean deviation or absolute mean deviation is the sum of the differences between data values and the mean, divided by the count. In this case the MAD is 6.
What does mean absolute deviation indicates?
The mean absolute deviation for a set of data is a measure of the spread of data. It is calculated as follows:Find the mean (average) value for the set of data. Call it M.For each observation, O, calculate the deviation, which is O - M.The absolute deviation is the absolute value of the deviation. If O - M is positive (or 0), the absolute value is the same. If not, it is M - O. The absolute value of O - M is written as |O - M|.Calculate the average of all the absolute deviations.One reason for using the absolute value is that the sum of the deviations will always be 0 and so will provide no useful information. The mean absolute deviation will be small for compact data sets and large for more spread out data.
