Given below is the information about marks obtained in Mathematics and Statistics by 100 students in a class. Which subject shows the highest variability in marks?

  Mathematics Statistics
Mean 20 25
S.D. 2 3
बेरीज

उत्तर

For Mathematics,

C.V. = `"S.D."/"Mean" xx 100`

= `2/20 xx 100`

 10

For Statistics,

C.V. = `"S.D."/"Mean" xx 100`

= `3/25 xx 100`

= 12

∴ (C.V.)S > (C.V.)M

Hence, the subject Statistics show higher variability in marks.
