[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the mean absolute deviation, you add up how far each number is from the mean (which is 173), then divide by how many numbers there are (which is 6). So it's like figuring out how spread out the numbers are from the middle number. So, the mean absolute deviation is 38.4.
