He uses the steps below to find both the mean and mean absolute deviation.
French Scores

Add the scores.
76 + 62 + 94 + 80 = 312
Step 2
Divide the sum of the scores by 4.
312 divided by 4 = 78
Step 3
Add the differences between the mean and each score.
(76 minus 78) + (62 minus 78) + (94 minus 78) + (80 minus 78) = 0
Step 4 Divide by 4.
