The formula to find the standard deviation of a binomial distribution is:
σ = √n*p*(1−p)
Here, n
is the sample size and p
is the population proportion.
To calculate the standard deviation for a binomial distribution, you need to specify the n
and p
in the boxes below, then click the ‘Calculate’ button:
σ = 2.2361
Calculation steps:
σ = √n*p*(1−p)
σ = √20*0.5*(1−0.5)
σ = 2.2361
