The following sets each have a mean of 16 and the standard deviations are given in variable form.
Set I = {11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21}, standard deviation = P
Set II = {16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16}, standard deviation = Q
Set III = {10, 10, 10, 22, 22, 22}, standard deviation = R
Rank these three standard deviations from greatest to least. Choose the correct choice from the following answers
A) P, Q, R
B) Q, R, P
C) R, P, Q
D) P, R, Q
E) R, Q, P
The answer should be R, P, Q as the mean is most deviated in Set III followed by Set I and then Set II.
