The greater the data are spread away from the mean, the greater the standard deviation. For example, consider these two distributions: Distribution A: {1, , 4, , 7} Distribution B: {1, 3, 4, 5, 7} In both sets, the mean and median is 4, and the range is 6. But the standard deviation of A is greater than that of B, because and are further away than 3 and 5 from the mean. 18. Which of the following distributions has the greatest standard deviation? (A) (B) (C) (D) (E) {21, 1, 3} {1, 2, 5} {0, 4,.
