Responses

The average deviation from the mean is 2.5.
The average deviation from the mean is 2.5.

The average deviation from the mean is 0.67.
The average deviation from the mean is 0.67.

The average deviation from the mean is 0.4.
The average deviation from the mean is 0.4.

The average deviation from the mean is 0.2.

Answer 1

Mean = (2*2 + 6*3 + 2*4)/10 = 30/10 = 3.
Absolute deviations: two 2's → 1 each, six 3's → 0 each, two 4's → 1 each. Sum = 2+0+2 = 4.
Average deviation = 4/10 = 0.4.

So the correct choice is 0.4.
