The Average and Standard Deviation
www.stat.berkeley.eduThe Standard Deviation (SD) The SD is a measure of how spread out numbers are around their average. Here is the recipe for calculating it: •Subtract mean from each number •Square the results •Add them up •Divide by the length of the list •Take square root of result SD is the square root of the average squared deviation from the mean 21
