Question 3- Compute the Coefficient of Variation of the following data set,
which team is more consistent?

The more consistent team is TEAM B.
Difference between Standard Deviation and Variance:-
Variance Standard Deviation
Variance is a numerical Standard deviation is a
value that describes the measure of dispersion of
variability of observations observations within a data
from its arithmetic mean. set.
It is the average of squared It is the root mean square
