Question

The mean deviation from the median is

• A. equal to that measured from another values
• B. maximum if all observations are positive
• C. greater than that measured from any other value.
• D. less than that measured from any other value.

Answer 1

The correct option is D

less than that measured from any other value.

In a frequency distribution, the sum of absolute values of deviations from the mean and mode is always more than the sum of the deviations from the media.
