Concepts Used:
Mean Deviation
A statistical measure that is used to calculate the average deviation from the mean value of the given data set is called the mean deviation.
The Formula for Mean Deviation:
The mean deviation for the given data set is calculated as:
Mean Deviation = [Σ |X – µ|]/N
Where,
- Σ represents the addition of values
- X represents each value in the data set
- µ represents the mean of the data set
- N represents the number of data values
Grouping of data is very much possible in two ways:
- Discrete Frequency Distribution
- Continuous Frequency Distribution
