Solution:

STANDARD DEVIATION = 12.47

DISCUSSION:

Based on the Sections A and B's determined standard deviation values, it is evident
that Section B's scores are more separated from the mean, 12.47 standard deviation
means that the average is 12.47 away from the center. In contrast, Section A has scores
that seem to be closer to the mean with a standard deviation of 9.91, which is a lesser
score than Section B and indicates fewer dispersed score.
