Answer: 6.51

Step-by-step explanation:

For x be a binomial variable with parameters n (number of trials ) and p (probability of getting success in each event)

The standard deviation is given by :-

\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}

As per given , we have

Number of seniors in the graduating class : n= 265

The probability the graduating seniors have chosen to attend The Ohio State University : p=20%= 0.20

Now, the standard deviation of the number of students who will attend Ohio State :-

\sigma=\sqrt{265(0.20)(1-0.20)}\\\\=\sqrt{265(0.20)(0.80)}=6.51152823844\approx6.51  

Hence, the standard deviation of the number of students who will attend Ohio State = 6.51
