Answer:

Answer depends on the data (not provided in your question)

Explanation:

MAD stands for mean absolute deviation. The definition gives clues as to how to find it.

Deviation refers to how far a number is from the mean (average) of the data

Example: For the data -12, 4, 12, 16, the mean of the data is (-12+4+12+16)/4 = 5.

Data Absolute Deviation from mean

-12 |-12 - 5| = 17

4 |4 - 5| = 1

12 |12 - 5| = 7

16 |16 - 5| = 11

Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD)

(17 + 1 + 7 + 11) / 4 = 9
