Definition
A measures about how far the difference
between a value/data from its tendency
sentral.
Same center,
different variation
Range = 14 - 1 = 13
The range for grouped data are

Standard Deviation
To find the variance, we squared the deviations
from the mean, so the variance is in squared
units.
To return to the same units as the data, we use
the square root of the variance, the standard
deviation.
