What is the means-to-mad ratio of the two data sets, expressed as a decimal?
data set mean mean absolute deviation (mad)
1 4.3 1
2 4.9 1.2

Means-to-MAD ratio is something that wouldn't be hard to find out, but I've certainly never even heard of it.

The mean (µ) of a set of data points is found by adding them up and dividing by the number of data points.

For our first set: 

For our second set: 

The mean absolute deviation is when you find the distance of each data point from the mean and then find the mean of those distances.

For our first set: 

For our second set: 

It wouldn't be hard to find the ratio between these for each set as the question asks...don't forget to put our ratio in simplest form!

For the first set: 

For the second set: 
(In a fraction, we would just put this as 3 because the ÷1 is redundant...however, because this is ratio, we have to keep it in)

The answer is e &
