The marks obtained by students A and B in 3 examinations are given below

Marks of A 30 20 40
Marks of B 70 0 5

The ratio of the coefficient of variation of marks of A and the coefficient of variation of marks of B is

  1. 3: 1
  2. 5:83
  3. 1: 3
  4. 5:361

Solution

The marks obtained by students A and B in 3 examinations are given below:

Marks of A 30 20 40
Marks of B 70 0 5

Mean of Ax¯=30+20+403=903=30

Now,

S.D. of AσA=1nxi-x¯2

    =1330-302+20-302+40-302

    =2003

Mean of Bx¯=70+0+53=753

S.D. of BσB=1nxi-x¯2

          =1370-252+6-252+5-252

          =30503

Now, required ratio=σAσB×Bx¯Ax¯

                               =200330503×75330

                               =5361
