Answer the following :

Following data relates to the distribution of weights of 100 boys and 80 girls in a school:

  Boys Girls
Mean 60 47
Variance 16 9

Which of the two is more variable?

योग

उत्तर

Let n1 = 100, n2 = 80, `bar(x)_1` = 60, `bar(x)_2` = 47, `sigma_1 = sqrt(16)` = 4, `sigma_2 = sqrt(9)` = 3

C.V. of boys = `100 xx sigma_1/bar(x)_1`

= `100 xx 4/60`

= `400/600`

= 6.67%

C.V. of girls = `100 xx sigma_2/bar(x)_2`

= `100 xx 3/47`

= `300/47`

= 6.38%

Here, C.V. of boys > C.V. of girls

∴ Series of boys is more variable.
