Answer 2

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "3"

(1) First get the mean: 25 + 36+ 31 + 32 / 4 = 31
(2) Find the distance of each value to the mean: 31-25= 6; 36-31=5; 31-31=0; 32-31=1
(3) Get the mean of the distance: 6 + 5 + 0 + 1 / 4 = 3

So the mean deviation is 3.
