What is the mean absolute deviation for the set of data below?

2,8,10,16

5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the Mean

(2+8+10+16) / 4=9

2. For each number, subtract the Mean and square the result.

(2-9) ^2=49

(8-9) ^2=1

(10-9) ^2=1

(16-9) ^2=49

3. Find the Mean of those squared differences.

(49+1+1+49) / 4=25

4. Take the square root of that and this is what you want.

square root of 25 = 5
