Answer:

4

Explanation:

  1. Add up your data. 3+13+11+5=32
  2. Divide the sum by the number of data you have. In your case you would divide 32/4/
  3. This will give you 8, which is your mean. Now, subtract 8 from each value and put the difference to its absolute value.
  4. Now, add up each of these values (5+5+3+3=16), then divide by 4. This will give you an answer of 4.

Hope this helps! Have a great day :)
