4.7 Measures of Variability Grouped Data

The document discusses calculating measures of variability, including range, variance, and standard deviation, for grouped data. It provides examples of calculating these measures for scores on tests and allowances. The degree of dispersion is lowest when the range and standard deviation are smallest.

“Measures of Variability of Grouped Data”
Learning Competency: Find the range, variance and standard deviation of a given grouped data.

 Range  Variance (σ2)  Standard Deviation (SD)


- is the mean of the square of the deviations
- The range is the simplest measure of from the mean of a frequency distribution. - is considered the best indicator of
variability. For large quantities, the variance is the degree of dispersion among the
computed using frequency distribution measures of variability because it
with columns for the midpoint value, the represents an average variability of the
product of the frequency and midpoint value distribution. Given the set of data, the
for each interval, the deviation and its smaller the range, the smaller the
square, and the product of the frequency and standard deviation, the less spread is the
the squared deviation distribution.

I. Calculate the range, variance, and standard deviation for the following set of data.
