Answer:
Advantages of mean deviation:
It shown the dispersion, or scatter of the various items of a series from its central value. It is not very much affected by the values of extreme items of a series. It facilitates comparison between different items of a series. It truly represents the average of deviations of the items of a series.
Limitation of mean diviation
So, the mean deviation about the mean is not very scientific. Hence, in some cases, mean deviation may not give satisfactory results. (iii) The mean deviation is calculated on the basis of absolute values of the deviations. Hence it cannot be subjected to further algebraic treatment.
