To see how wide spread the results are. If the average (mean) grade for a certain test is 60 percent and the standard deviation is 30, then about half of the students are not studying. But if the mean is 60 and the standard deviation is 5 then the teacher is doing something wrong.
The larger the value of the standard deviation, the more the data values are scattered and the less accurate any results are likely to be.
A single observation, such as 50486055535157526145 cannot have a standard deviation cube test compressive result.
It depends on WHAT the sd is the same as.
It means the results (the information given) are spread out meaning the space in-between the results is quite big
