Two accounting professors decided to compare the variance of their grading procedures. To accomplish this, they each graded the same 17 exams with the following results:
The calculated F ratio is
| Mean Grade | Standard Deviation | |
| Professor 1 | 78.4 | 12.7 |
| Professor 2 | 75.3 | 6.8 |
Solution
F= s1^2/s2^2
= 12.7^2/6.8^2
=3.488106
Answer: 3.488
