Question:

Waiting times​ (in minutes) of customers at a bank where all customers enter a single waiting line and a bank where customers wait in individual lines at three different teller windows are listed below. Find the coefficient of variation for each of the two sets of​ data, then compare the variation.
Bank A​ (single line): 6.5 6.6 6.7 6.8 7.0 7.2 7.3 7.7 7.7 7.7
Bank B​ (individual lines): 4.1 5.5 5.7 6.2 6.7 7.6 7.6 8.5 9.4 9.8
The coefficient of variation for the waiting times at Bank A is _%.
(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
The coefficient of variation for the waiting times at the Bank B is _​%.
​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
Is there a difference in variation between the two data​ sets?
