standard deviation
• The standard deviation tells how much the data is clustered around the mean of the data.
• Suppose that we have the data of 25 employees.
• Now to make the Standard Deviation graph, we will need probability distribution of each number in data.
• To calculate probability distribution in excel, we will need mean and standard deviation.
• Preparing Data For Standard Deviation Chart (Graph) or Bell Curve
• to plot a bell graph or say standard deviation chart of this, we first need to calculated the Mean of data,
and standard deviation in excel.
• To calculate mean, use AVERAGE function
•
To calculate standard deviation of entire population use STDEV.P
• Now, we can calculate Normal distribution.
Use NORM.DIST function.
• Copy the formula
• Use excel charts to get the bell curve.
Modify the standard deviation: reduce and increase …
• If we reduce the standard deviation, the bell
curve will be more lean toward the mean of
data.
