Best answer

Company A

x̄ = ₹ 600

s = ₹ 30

Coefficient of variation = \(\frac{s}{\bar x}\) × 100

\(\frac{30}{600}\) × 100

= 5%

Company B:

x̄ = ₹ 2100

s = ₹ 84

Coefficient of variation = \(\frac{s}{\bar x}\) × 100

\(\frac{84}{2100}\) × 100

= 4%

The coefficient of variation of daily salary of employees of company A is 5 % and that of company B it is 4 %. Hence, the daily salary in company B Is more stable.
