Question

A large retirement community wants to host a grand birthday party for its residents who recently became centenarians (a centenarian is someone who has lived 100 years). The party organizers learn that 25 new centenarians will be the guests of honor at the party, so they decide to prepare some interesting facts about this group’s age. They start brainstorming, and one of the organizers says, “Hey, the standard deviation of their ages would be an interesting fact.”

Which of the following best represents the standard deviation for the ages of the new centenarians?

a. 100

b.4

c. 0

Explanation / Answer

here as we know that all if these centenarians are new centenarians so age of all thse 25 new centenarians would be in the range of 100 to 101. so that means standard deviation of their age would be very less and under the value of 1. So, here option C seems most correct as their will be minimal standard deviation for the ages of new centenatrians. Answer is 0.
