Class 2 scored better on average

<h3>How to determine which class scored better on average?</h3>

The averages and the standard deviations are given as:

Class 1

Mean score = 7.8

Standard deviation = 1

Class 2

Mean score = 8.1

Standard deviation = 0.2

As a general rule, the smaller the standard deviation; the better the average

Class 2 has a smaller deviation

Hence, class 2 scored better on average
