Comparing Mean and Mean Absolute Deviation

The video tutorial reviews a math test prep question on comparing mean and mean absolute deviation (MAD) using a whale watching scenario. It explains how to calculate the mean and MAD for morning and afternoon trips, compares the results, and identifies the correct answers. The tutorial provides a detailed walkthrough of the calculations and concludes with a summary of the findings.
