  1. A \(\frac{625}{9}\)
  2. B \(\sqrt{\frac{250}{3}}\)
  3. C \(\frac{25}{3}\)
  4. D \(\frac{250}{3}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{25}{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{n}=500, \mathrm{P}=\frac{1}{6}, \mathrm{q}=\frac{5}{6}\)
S.D. \(=\sqrt{\mathrm{npq}}=\sqrt{500 \times \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{5}{6}}=\sqrt{\frac{2500}{36}}=\frac{50}{6}=\frac{25}{3}\)
