The second table has a larger average deviation.
The second table has a larger average deviation.

The first table has a larger average deviation.
The first table has a larger average deviation.

It is impossible to tell from this data.

The average deviation is the same for both tables.
The average deviation is the same for both tables.

Answer 1

The second table has a larger average deviation.

Table 1: (0+4+2+1+0+1+1+1+2) = 12 → average = 12/9 ≈ 1.33
Table 2: (2+1+3+3+1+1+1+1+2) = 15 → average = 15/9 ≈ 1.67
