All Questions Correct Answer
✅ Option d — Coefficient of quartile deviation
All Options:
- ARange
- BMean deviation
- CStandard deviation
- DCoefficient of quartile deviation
Detailed Solution & Explanation
Measures of dispersion are divided into absolute measures and relative measures. Absolute measures (like Range, Mean Deviation, and Standard Deviation) have units, whereas relative measures (like Coefficient of Range, Coefficient of Variation, and Coefficient of Quartile Deviation) are unitless ratios. Therefore, the Coefficient of Quartile Deviation is a relative measure of dispersion.
Hence, **Option D** is the correct answer.
