Year 7 maths · Fieldbook Learning

Name ______________________ Date __________

Subtract the two medians, then divide by the MAD.

  1. Team A has a median score of 27 and Team B has a median score of 39. Both teams have a mean absolute deviation of 6. The difference between the medians is how many times the MAD?
  2. Team A has a median score of 17 and Team B has a median score of 23. Both teams have a mean absolute deviation of 3. The difference between the medians is how many times the MAD?
  3. Team A has a median score of 33 and Team B has a median score of 37.5. Both teams have a mean absolute deviation of 3. The difference between the medians is how many times the MAD?
  4. Team A has a median score of 38 and Team B has a median score of 44. Both teams have a mean absolute deviation of 3. The difference between the medians is how many times the MAD?
  5. Team A has a median score of 24 and Team B has a median score of 26. Both teams have a mean absolute deviation of 2. The difference between the medians is how many times the MAD?
  6. Team A has a median score of 37 and Team B has a median score of 49. Both teams have a mean absolute deviation of 8. The difference between the medians is how many times the MAD?
