nothing

%.

(Round to one decimal place asneeded.)

b. Which data set has less consistency(or morevariability)? Choose the correct answer below.

A.

Data set2 has less consistency(or morevariability) because its coefficient of variation is less.

B.

Data set2 has less consistency(or morevariability) because its coefficient of variation is greater.
