Step 1.1

The mean of a set of numbers is the sum divided by the number of terms.

¯ x = \frac{22 + 25 + 63 + 65}{4}

$\overline{x} = \frac{22 + 25 + 63 + 65}{4}$

Step 1.2

Step 1.2.1

Add

22

$22$ and

25

$25$ .

¯ x = \frac{47 + 63 + 65}{4}

$\overline{x} = \frac{47 + 63 + 65}{4}$

Step 1.2.2

Add

47

$47$ and

63

$63$ .

¯ x = \frac{110 + 65}{4}

$\overline{x} = \frac{110 + 65}{4}$

Step 1.2.3

Add

110

$110$ and

65

$65$ .

¯ x = \frac{175}{4}

$\overline{x} = \frac{175}{4}$

¯ x = \frac{175}{4}

$\overline{x} = \frac{175}{4}$

Step 1.3

Divide.

¯ x = 43.75

$\overline{x} = 43.75$

Step 1.4

The mean should be rounded to one more decimal place than the original data. If the original data were mixed, round to one decimal place more than the least precise.

¯ x = 43.8

$\overline{x} = 43.8$

¯ x = 43.8

$\overline{x} = 43.8$

Step 3

Set up the formula for sample standard deviation. The standard deviation of a set of values is a measure of the spread of its values.

s = n \sum i = 1 \sqrt{\frac{{(x_{i} - x_{a v g})}_{i}^{2}}{n - 1}}

$s = \sum_{i = 1}^{n} \sqrt{\frac{{(x_{i} - x_{a v g})}^{2}}{n - 1}}$

Step 4

Set up the formula for standard deviation for this set of numbers.

s = \sqrt{\frac{{(22 - 43.8)}^{2} + {(25 - 43.8)}^{2} + {(63 - 43.8)}^{2} + {(65 - 43.8)}^{2}}{4 - 1}}

$s = \sqrt{\frac{{(22 - 43.8)}^{2} + {(25 - 43.8)}^{2} + {(63 - 43.8)}^{2} + {(65 - 43.8)}^{2}}{4 - 1}}$
