Arrange Data in Ascending Order: Arrange the data set in ascending order.The data set in ascending order is: 67, 77, 103, 107, 107, 121, 123, 124, 124.
Calculate Mean: Calculate the mean (average) of the data set.Mean = (67+77+103+107+107+121+123+124+124)/9Mean = 953/9Mean ≈105.889
Calculate Variance: Calculate the variance of the data set.Variance = Σ((each value−mean)2)/number of valuesVariance = ((67−105.889)2+(77−105.889)2+(103−105.889)2+(107−105.889)2+(107−105.889)2+(121−105.889)2+(123−105.889)2+(124−105.889)2+(124−105.889)2)/9Variance = ((−38.889)2+(−28.889)2+(−2.889)2+(1.111)2+(1.111)2+(15.111)2+(17.111)2+(18.111)2+(18.111)2)/9Variance = (1512.568+834.568+8.345+1.234+1.234+228.345+292.679+328.012+328.012)/9Variance = 4535.997/9Variance ≈503.999
Calculate Standard Deviation: Calculate the population standard deviation.Standard deviation = VarianceStandard deviation ≈503.999Standard deviation ≈22.453
