How do the medians of the data sets compare in terms of the mean absolute deviations of the data sets?
A. The median shoe size for the hockey players is 1.5 greater than the median shoe size for the soccer players, and the difference is 1.25 times the mean absolute deviation of either data set.
B. The median shoe size for the hockey players is 2 greater than the median shoe size for the soccer players, and the difference is 1.25 times the mean absolute deviation of either data set.
C. The median shoe size for the hockey players is 1.5 greater than the median shoe size for the soccer players, and the difference is 0.9375 times the mean absolute deviation of either data set.
D. The median shoe size for the hockey players is 2 greater than the median shoe size for the soccer players, and the difference is 0.9375 times the mean absolute deviation of either data set.
Is it A, B, C, or D?
