### MEASURES OF DISPERSION

 Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the measures of dispersion only uses two values in the distribution?
 A range B standard deviation C variance D mean deviation
Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: Range is the measure of dispersion which uses only two observations.

Detailed explanation-2: -Range is the most simple and commonly understandable measures of dispersion. Range is defined as the difference between the highest(or largest ) and lowest(or smallest) observed value in a series. Therefore, it is the most affected measures of dispersion by the extreme values of the series. Was this answer helpful?

Detailed explanation-3: -Median. It is the middle value of the data set. This value divides the dataset into two halves.
