    A) 5                                                

    B) 2

    C) 3                                                

    D) 4

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                 From the given data, median  \[=\frac{25+26}{2}a=25.5a\] Required mean deviation about median\[=\frac{2\left| 0.5+1.5+2.5+...+24.5 \right|}{50}\left| a \right|=50\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\left| a \right|=4\]
