What is the mean score for the exam? Round your answer to 2 decimal places as needed

What is the median score for the exam? Round your answer to 2 decimal places as needed

What is the standard deviation for the exam? Round your answer to 2 decimal places as needed

Solution

  • Mean score: 75.00
  • Median score: 80.00
  • Standard deviation: 10.57

Would you like further details on these calculations or have any questions?

Here are 5 related questions for further exploration:

  1. How does the mean compare to the mode in this dataset?
  2. What percentage of students scored above the mean?
  3. How would the median change if one more student scored 100?
  4. What is the range of the scores?
  5. Can we calculate the variance of this dataset?

Tip: The standard deviation gives a sense of how spread out the data is. A smaller standard deviation indicates that the data points tend to be closer to the mean.
