The standard deviation of first 10 natural numbers is

A

5.5

B

3.87

C

2.97

D

2.87

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
We know that, SD of first n natural numbers`=sqrt((n^(2)-1)/(12))`
`therefore` SD of first 10 numbers `=sqrt((10^(2)-1)/(12))`
`=sqrt((100-1)/(12))=sqrt((99)/(12))=sqrt(8.25)=2.87`
