Formula
1. Mean deviation of Mean `delta bar x = (sum |x - bar x|)/n`
2. Mean deviation of Median `delta bar x = (sum|x - M|)/n`
3. Mean deviation of Mode `delta bar x = (sum|x - Z|)/n`

Examples
1. Find Mean deviation about Mode from the following ungrouped data
`85,96,76,108,85,80,100,85,70,95`


Solution:
Mode :
In the given data, the observation `85` occurs maximum number of times (`3`)

`:. Z = 85`

`x``|x - Z| = |x - 85|`

Mean deviation of Mode
`delta bar x = (sum |x - Z|)/n`

`delta bar x = 88/10`

`delta bar x = 8.8`


Coefficient of Mean deviation `=(delta bar x)/(bar x)`

`=8.8/85`

`=0.1035`


2. Find Mean deviation about Mode from the following ungrouped data
`69,66,67,69,64,63,65,68,72`


Solution:
Mode :
In the given data, the observation `69` occurs maximum number of times (`2`)

`:. Z = 69`

`x``|x - Z| = |x - 69|`

------
`603``24`


Mean deviation of Mode
`delta bar x = (sum |x - Z|)/n`

`delta bar x = 24/9`

`delta bar x = 2.6667`


Coefficient of Mean deviation `=(delta bar x)/(bar x)`

`=2.6667/69`

`=0.0386`
