Example 1:- X: 2, 5,6,8,9,10,12,13, 10, 7, 5, and 3; the calculated Mean is 7.5, and n =12.

Thus the Sample Variance is equal to 131 (12-1) = 11.909 and s = 11.909 =3.451.
For grouped data we use this formula:
s2 = n fi(Xi )2/(n-1)
i=1

s = 70.8 (20-1) = 3.726 and s = 3.726 = 1.93.

If you have grouped data with classes, then first find the class midpoints and then the Mean and
then the variance by treating the class midpoints like the X column above, and use the formula
given above. This is done for Example 3 below.
