Answer:

Most of the time you can go on a website that can cauculate it.

Explanation:

How to cauculate the MAD:

Take each number in the data set, subtract the mean, and take the absolute value. Then take the sum of the absolute values. Now compute the mean absolute deviation by dividing the sum above by the total number of values in the data set. Finally, round to the nearest tenth.
