Question

Consider the following for the two items that follow: The sum and the sum of squares of the observations corresponding to length X (in cm) and weight Y (in gm) of 50 tropical tubers are given as ΣX = 200, ΣY = 250, ΣX² = 900 and ΣY² = 1400.

Which one of the following statements is correct?

This question was previously asked in
NDA 2 2025 GAT Question Paper (14-Sep-2025)
The correct answer is

Coefficient of variation cannot be determined from the given data.

We cannot determine the coefficient of variation of X or Y because we do not have the standard deviations.
