They wouldn't set you a question on this if you haven't covered it before. I suggest you do some revision on this. I'll talk you through this question, the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) is given by this formula: \[MAD = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}\left| x_i - \bar{x} \right|\]x_i is each value in our data, x with a line over it is the mean, n is the number of elements in our data set. So first of all we need to work out the mean number from your data, can you tell me what that is?
