For a frequency distribution,the standard deviation is computed by:

  • A
    $\sigma = \frac{\sum f(x - \bar{x})}{\sum f}$
  • B
    $\sigma = \frac{\sqrt{\sum f(x - \bar{x})^2}}{\sum f}$
  • C
    $\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum f(x - \bar{x})^2}{\sum f}}$
  • D
    $\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum f(x - \bar{x})}{\sum f}}$
