You cannot calculate standard deviation for objects such as concrete cubes - you can only calculate standard deviation for some measure - such as side length, surface area, volume, mass, alkalinity or some other measure.
To calculate the standard deviation of compressive strength of concrete cubes, first, gather the compressive strength data from your samples. Then, calculate the mean (average) strength by summing all the values and dividing by the number of samples. Next, subtract the mean from each strength value to find the deviations, square these deviations, and average them by dividing by the number of samples (for a population) or by one less than the number of samples (for a sample). Finally, take the square root of this average to obtain the standard deviation.

Basically, the force supplied by a concrete compression machine is a definite value. For normal concrete strength application, say below 50MPa, the stress produced by a 150mmx150mmx150mm cube is sufficient for the machine to crush the concrete sample. However, if the designed concrete strength is 100MPa, under the same force (about 2,000kN) supplied by the machine, the stress under a 150mmx150mmx150mm cube is not sufficient to crush the concrete cube. Therefore, 100mmx100mmx100mm concrete cubes are used instead to increase the applied stress to crush the concrete cubes. For normal concrete strength, the cube size of 150mmx150mmx150mm is already sufficient for the crushing strength of the machine.
If they are standard cubes - with numbers from 1 to 6 - the probability is 0.
Concrete cubes are tested for compressive strength by first curing them for a specified period, usually 28 days. After curing, the cubes are placed in a hydraulic testing machine where a controlled load is applied until the cube fails. The maximum load applied at failure is recorded, and the compressive strength is calculated by dividing this load by the cross-sectional area of the cube. This test helps assess the quality and durability of the concrete mix used in construction.

The standard for concrete cube testing is to put the cube under increased pressure. The pressure is increased until the cube breaks and determines the cubes compression strength.
A standard box of Rogers sugar cubes typically contains 60 cubes.

I think due to the presence of Cao in the cement.... it may be the result of excessive drying of concrete cubes too...
The characteristic strength of the concrete is the compressive strength of the(fck) concrete cubes of size 150 mm tested at 28 days. And compressive strength of cubes should not fall not more than 5% of this fck.
If the number cubes are standard dice cubes, the odds of rolling 3 ones is 1 in 216.
If they are standard cubes - with numbers from 1 to 6 - the probability is 0.
It depends on the size of the unspecified cube size, and what and how they are to be used? More information is needed.

To determine how many ice cubes equal 8 lbs, we need to know the weight of a single ice cube. The weight of a standard ice cube is approximately 0.5 oz or 0.03125 lbs. To find the number of ice cubes that equal 8 lbs, we divide 8 by 0.03125, which equals 256 ice cubes. So, 256 ice cubes would equal 8 lbs.
