From the data given below state which group is more variable, A or B?

The group having higher coefficient of variation will be more variable

So, we will calculate



Where σ is standard deviation


is mean


For group A



Mean


Where A is assumed mean = 45



h = class size= 20- 10 = 10


Mean,


Variance


=


=


Standard deviation =



C.V.A=


For group B




Variance


=


=


Standard deviation =




Since the coefficient of variance of group B coefficient of Group A


Group B is more variable
