Answer:

the difference of the mean in the case of mean absolute deviation is 2.5

Explanation:

The computation of the difference of the mean is shown below:

Difference is of

= B - A

= 47 - 42

= 5

Now the difference of the mean is

= 5 ÷ 2.5

= 2.5

Hence, the difference of the mean in the case of mean absolute deviation is 2.5
