How do you determine the variance and standard deviation for a set of ungrouped data?
ariance of a set of ungrouped data can be obtained using the formula of variance

Solution:

variance is the average of the square of the difference between each data and the mean
The standard deviation is the square root of the variance which also measures the dispersion of
a data set relative to its mean measured in the same units of the original data
