To find the mean absolute deviation, Sarina will use the mean of the time spent on homework as the divisor.
First, find the mean of the time spent on homework:
(51 + 60 + 25 + 15 + 20 + 5 + 35) / 7 = 211 / 7 = 30.1
Therefore, Sarina will use 30.1 as the divisor when calculating the mean absolute deviation.
Sarina tracks her time spent on homework each night for a week, in minutes. She collects the following times: 51, 60, 25, 15, 20, 5, 35. When she solves for the mean absolute deviation, what number will she use for the divisor?(1 point)Responses 55, 30.1, 15.9, 7.
