$\textsf{Mean}\:\overline{X}=\sf \dfrac{\textsf{sum of all the data values}}{\textsf{total number of data values}}$

$\implies \sf Mean\:(Nilo)=\dfrac{5+6+14+15}{4}=\dfrac{40}{4}=10$

$\implies \sf Mean\:(Lisa)=\dfrac{8+9+11+12}{4}=\dfrac{40}{4}=10$

<h3><u>Standard Deviation</u></h3>

$\displaystyle \textsf{Standard Deviation }s=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum X^2-\dfrac{(\sum X)^2}{n}}{n-1}}$

$\begin{aligned}\displaystyle \textsf{Standard Deviation (Nilo)} & =\sqrt{\dfrac{(5^2+6^2+14^2+15^2)-\dfrac{(5+6+14+15)^2}{4}}{4-1}}\\\\& = \sqrt{\dfrac{482-\dfrac{40^2}{4}}{3}}\\\\& = \sqrt{\dfrac{82}{3}}\\\\& = 5.23\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned}\displaystyle \textsf{Standard Deviation (Lisa)} & =\sqrt{\dfrac{(8^2+9^2+11^2+12^2)-\dfrac{(8+9+11+12)^2}{4}}{4-1}}\\\\& = \sqrt{\dfrac{410-\dfrac{40^2}{4}}{3}}\\\\& = \sqrt{\dfrac{10}{3}}\\\\& = 1.83\end{aligned}$

<h3><u>Summary</u></h3>

Nilo has a mean score of 10 and a standard deviation of 5.23.

Lisa has a mean score of 10 and a standard deviation of 1.83.

The <u>mean</u> scores are the <u>same</u>.

Nilo's standard deviation is higher than Lisa's. Therefore, Nilo's test scores are more <u>spread out</u> that Lisa's, which means Lisa's test scores are more <u>consistent</u>.
