The measure is called STANDARD DEVIATION.
Standard deviation is a mathematical measure that is used to evaluate the difference between the mean value of a set of number and each value in the group. It is calculated as the square root of variance by determining the variation between each data point relative to the mean.

The heights of a maple tree and a cherry tree have a ratio of 5:2. If the maple tree grew 20 cm and 20 cm was cut off the top of

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Let x be the heights of a maple tree and y be the height of the cherry tree.
We know:
 $\frac{x}{y} = \frac{5}{2}$
The new ratio is obtained like this:
 $\frac{x+20}{y-20} = \frac{3}{1}$ .
From the above equation we get $x= (y-20)\frac{3}{1} -20$ .
then $\frac{ (y-20)\frac{3}{1} -20}{y} = \frac{5}{2}$
Solving the above equation for y we get: $y=160$
So $x=400$
So the first tree is (400-160=240) more taller than cherry tree.
