Standard Deviation Quiz

This document provides instructions on how to calculate the standard deviation of two sets of ungrouped data. The steps are to find the mean, complete a table of deviations from the mean and their squares, and calculate the standard deviation using the formula of the sum of the squared deviations divided by the number of values, and taking the square root of the result. Standard deviation measures how dispersed the values are from the average.
