Explanation:

Mode: Mode is the number which appears many times in the data set.

Mean absolute deviation: The mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the data set is the average distance between each data value and the mean.

Median: Median is the middle value of the given data set.

Range: Range is the difference between the lowest and the highest values of the given data set.

Since, the given statement is the definition of the Mean absolute deviation, therefore option C is correct.
