calculator results compare to the mean and absolute deviation? How do these results compare to your own individual data? Which method is more accurate? The mean was 10 g/mL‚ while the calculator’s results for the line of best fit showed that the density was 9.615736862 g/mL. This is not a large difference‚ but the calculated average is more accurate in comparison to the accepted value of the density of lead‚ or 11.343716 g/mL. The average absolute deviation‚ when done by hand‚ was .8 g/mL.
