What is the mean absolute deviation for 7, 5, 1, 6, 2, and 3?

A. 6

B. 3

C. 2

D. 1

To find the Mean Absolute Deviation, you have to find the mean first.

7+5+1+6+2+3=24

24 divided by 6 numbers = 4

The mean is four.

Next you need to find how much is each number from the mean

7=3 from 4 5=1 from 4 etc

You get 3,1,3,2,2,1

Then you find the mean of that.

3+1+3+2+2+1=12

12 divided by six numbers = 2

The Mean Absolute deviation is 2
