Given, Numbers of observations are given. 

To Find: Calculate the Mean Deviation. 

Formula Used: Mean Deviation = \(\frac{\Sigma d_i}{n}\)

Explanation: Here, Observations 57, 64, 43, 67, 49, 59, 44, 47, 61,59 are Given

Deviation |d| = |x-Mean|

Mean = Σ \(\frac{|x_i|}{n}\)

of the Given Observations = \(\frac{57+64+43+67+49+59+44+47+61+59}{10}\)  = \(\frac{550}{10}\)

And, The number of observations is 10. 

Now, The Mean Deviation is

    Xi |di| = |xi-55|
43 12
44 11
47 8
49 6
57 2
59 4
59 4
61 6
64 9
67 12
Total Σxi = 500 74

Mean Deviation = \(\frac{\Sigma d_i}{n}\)

Mean Deviation of the given Observations = \(\frac{74}{10}\) = 7.4

Hence, The Mean Deviation is 7.4
