Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If the standard deviation of a set of numbers is 3, what is the variance? (2020)
  • Step 1: Understand that standard deviation is a measure of how spread out the numbers are in a set.
  • Step 2: Know that variance is another measure of spread, and it is calculated by squaring the standard deviation.
  • Step 3: Since the standard deviation given is 3, you need to square this number.
  • Step 4: Calculate 3 squared, which is 3 * 3.
  • Step 5: The result of 3 * 3 is 9, so the variance is 9.
  • Standard Deviation and Variance – Variance is calculated as the square of the standard deviation, which measures the spread of a set of numbers.
