Which would be the best measures of center and variation
to use to compare the data?
The scores of Group B are skewed right, so the mean
and range are the best measures for comparison
Both distributions are nearly symmetric, so the mean
and the standard deviation are the best measures for
comparison
Both distributions are nearly symmetric, so the median
and the interquartile range are the best measures for
comparison
The scores of both groups are skewed, so the median
and standard deviation are the best measures for
comparison
