 The mean measures where the center of the data is and, in this case, it
determines the average sale of the businessman’s restaurant for a 10-
day period. In the computation above, the average sales of the business
for 10 days is Php 21,339.

B. Range R = Xlargest - Xsmallest

= 32,220- 14,250
= Php 17,970

 For the 10-day period of his sales, the range is Php 17,970 after
deducting the lowest sale from the highest sale.

 The computation above shows that the standard deviation for the 10-
day period sales of the business is Php 5,678.44. A standard deviation
is, by definition, a measure of how distributed data is in reference to
the mean. Although there is only one standard deviation and no point
of comparison in this situation, a low standard deviation implies that
data is grouped around the mean, while a high standard deviation
shows that data is more spread out
