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