- How would you calculate Standard Deviation?arrow_forwardAn ore sample was analyzed for its Fe content. Student A analyzed the sample a total of six times and her results had a standard deviation of 1.33. The same sample was analyzed five times by Student B and his results had a standard deviation of 3.42. To determine if their standard deviations are similar, they perform an F test. The calculated F value is and the table value of Fis 3 in your book for critical values of F.
