Answer:

the MAD is 5.6 thousand

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the mean: 41 + 38 + 36 + 57 + 43 = 215, divide it by the amount of numbers, 5, 215/5 = 43. Now that we have the mean, find the distance each number is away from it:

|41 - 43| = 2, |38 - 43| = 5, |36 - 43| = 7, |57 - 43| = 14, |43 - 43| = 0.

2 + 5 + 7 + 14 + 0 = 28, divide it by the amount of numbers to get 28/5 = 5.6
